For the 16th time in his career, LeBron James joined the five-man team featuring the best players of the season, setting a record in the NBA. James has been on the first team 13 times, twice on the second and once on the third team.
The top 15 has so far been held by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Kobe Bryant and Tim Duncan in addition to him.
Each year, the writers elect the best first, second and third five of the year. The Los Angeles Lakers star has now made it to the first team for the 13th time in his career - which is also a record - while previously he was twice in the second and once in the third five. A maximum of 500 points can be obtained from the 100 voters, this time swept by James, as well as the last MVP election winner, Jannis Antetokunmpo of Greece (Milwaukee Bucks).
In addition to them, James Harden (Houston Rockets, 474 points), Anthony Davis (Los Angeles Lakers, 455) and 21-year-old Slovenian Luka Doncic (Dallas Mavericks, 416) became members of the top five.
Kawhi Leonard (Los Angeles Clippers, 372), Nikola Jokic (Denver Nuggets, 311), Damian Lillard (Portland)
Trail Blazers, 284), Chris Paul (Oklahoma City Thunder, 199), and Pascal Siakam (Toronto Raptors, 168), while Jayson
Tatum (Boston Celtics, 153), Jimmy Butler (Miami Heat, 147), Rudy Gobert (Utah Jazz, 110), Ben Simmons (Philadelphia 76ers, 61), and Russell Westbrook (Houston Rockets, 56) were included.
