The NBA honored the 15 best players of the 2025-26 season on Sunday, with back-to-back Most Valuable Player Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Defensive Player of the Year Victor Wembanyama leading the All-NBA Team.
The two top Western Conference Finals players earned All-NBA First Team honors alongside Nikola Jokic (Denver Nuggets), Luka Doncic (Los Angeles Lakers), and Cade Cunningham (Detroit Pistons).
All-NBA First Team selection
Gilgeous-Alexander (Oklahoma City) and Jokic each received 500 points as unanimous selections.
It was the fourth straight All-NBA First Team selection for OKC’s Canadian guard, while Nuggets’ center and playmaker was voted to the First Team for the sixth time and eighth overall.
Wembanyama (San Antonio) had 498 points to lead the First Team honorees and became the first Spurs player since 2016-17 to make the First Team.Â
Doncic, the regular-season top scorer at 33.5 points per game, earned his sixth First-Team nod in eight seasons.
Cunningham earned his first All-NBA First Team honor and second All-Team selection overall.
Doncic and Cunningham, who were one game short of the required 65-game threshold, received special eligibility exceptions from the league.
The pair earned 482 and 414 points respectively.

Meanwhile, Tyrese Maxey (Philadelphia 76ers), Jamal Murray (Nuggets), Jalen Johnson (Atlanta Hawks), Chet Holmgren (Thunder), and Jalen Duren (Pistons) made the All-NBA Team for the first time, earning third-team honors.
Duren and Cunningham became the first pair of Pistons named to the All-NBA Team in the same season since 2005-06, when Chauncey Billups and Ben Wallace were named.
Doncic’s team-mate, LeBron James, was among those ineligible to receive votes because he did not play enough games.
It was the second time in his 23-season career that James was not an All-NBA pick.
Golden State’s Stephen Curry and Milwaukee’s Giannis Antetokounmpo were also ineligible this season because of the 65-game rule.
