Steph Curry’s Record-Breaking Achievement
Steph Curry‘s inclusion in the All-NBA Third Team marks a significant milestone for the Warriors franchise, bringing his total to a franchise-record 10th All-NBA Team selection. This illustrious career tally includes four First Team, four Second Team, and two Third Team honors.
“It’s amazing — 10 times now Steph’s been an All-NBA player,” said Warriors coach Steve Kerr in a video released by the team.
“The brilliance for an entire decade is so rare. Steph’s been an MVP a couple of times, a four-time champion, but 10 straight years, or at least 10 out of 11, I guess, with the one year with the injury, to be All-NBA is just a testament to Steph’s work ethic, obviously his skill and his talent, but also his desire to continue to be great and to continue to get better every single year. Just an amazing accomplishment.”
Domantas Sabonis’ Back-to-Back Honors
For Domantas Sabonis, this selection marks his second consecutive season on the All-NBA Third Team. His consistent performance makes him the 10th player in Kings’ franchise history to earn back-to-back All-NBA honors. Sabonis’ impact on the court has been pivotal in the Kings’ resurgence in recent seasons.
Notable Inclusions and Omissions
While Steph Curry and Sabonis secured their spots, other NBA stars also made their mark on the All-NBA teams. Denver Nuggets’ Nikola Jokic, Los Angeles Lakers’ LeBron James, and Minnesota Timberwolves’ Anthony Edwards are among the league’s premier names honored this season. However, notable absences include Boston Celtics’ Jaylen Brown and Philadelphia 76ers’ Tyrese Maxey, who didn’t make the cut this year.
