Coming off the heels of the NBA announcing Shai Gilgeous-Alexander as the 2025 NBA MVP, we also know who will be on the All-NBA team this season. For anyone unaware, it’s almost like being on the dean’s list or the NBA’s honor roll. And getting selected means your stock rises through the roof.

How do you make the team? Well, a media voting panel selects players for these All-NBA teams, and positions are not considered. Players are awarded 5 points if they’re voted for the First team, three for the Second team, and one for the Third Team. So, who has made the list this year? Let’s find out, starting with the All-NBA First team, the cream of the crop.

Who made the All-NBA First Team this year?

 2025 MVP, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, headlined this year’s All-NBA First Team. He was joined by his MVP rival, Nikola Jokić, followed by Donovan Mitchell of the Cleveland Cavaliers, Giannis Antetokounmpo of the Milwaukee Bucks, and Jayson Tatum of the Boston Celtics.

Antetokounmpo, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Tatum, and the Joker were all unanimous selections, receiving First Team votes on all of their hundred ballots. 

And it’s not the first time for these players. Giannis sees his 7th straight All-NBA First team, whereas Tatum trails right behind him with 4 four selections, while Shai has three. And this is Nikola Jokić’s second consecutive first-team nod, even though he’s been selected 5 times overall. But this is the first time for the Cavs’ Donovan Mitchell—the closest he got. Before this, he was making the Second team in 2023. 

Speaking of this year’s Second Team and Third Teams, they are just as star-studded as the First Team. Here’s who made it onto those teams.

Who made the 2025 All-NBA Second and Third Teams?

Despite being in the twilight of their careers, both LeBron James and Stephen Curry have made the All-NBA second team. This selection marks LeBron James’ 21st consecutive appearance on an All-NBA team. Is anyone breaking this record? Meanwhile, Stephen Curry makes his 11th appearance on an All-NBA team. 

The man who eliminated these two legends, the Timberwolves’ Anthony Edwards, also made his way onto the list. He is joined by fellow guard Jalen Brunson, whose team is in the Eastern Conference Finals this year. Finally, Defensive Player of the Year, Evan Mobley, rounds out the Second Team this year. Like his fellow Cav, Donovan Mitchell, this is Mobley’s first appearance on an All-NBA list.

Now, it’s not like the first and second teams have all the stars in them. The third team this year is also filled with some incredible talent. Talent like the Indiana Pacers’ Tyrese Haliburton, who’s steadily proving to everyone why he’s not “overrated.” In fact, his second straight selection here shows that he may be underrated. Hali’s Eastern Conference Finals rival, Karl-Anthony Towns, is the only big man to make the third team this year.

But this year’s third team is dominated by the East, with Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham being the third player from the East to make the team. Jalen Williams of the Oklahoma City Thunder joins them on this list. And this is the first time being selected for both of them. But someone who’s no stranger to these lists is the Clippers’ James Harden. It’s the 8th overall selection for Harden.

As always, this year’s All-NBA teams are full of incredibly talented players. It’s safe to say this list is a rare instance of the NBA media getting it right. But obviously, they can’t include everyone’s favorites on here. So, did they leave out anyone you thought had an exceptional year? Let us know!
