At the end of every season, the best players in the league are named to the All-NBA Teams.
All-NBA was originally made up of two teams, but the NBA created a Third Team for the 1988-89 season. Even with an additional team, tough decisions have to be made every year to determine the most worthy candidates.
The 2022-23 season was no exception, as many of the biggest names in the NBA were limited by injuries.
Which players earned the honor of being named All-NBA this season? Here is the complete list of teams.

How All-NBA Teams are selected
Each NBA end-of-season award is voted on by a global panel of 100 sportswriters and broadcasters.
For All-NBA, each voter chooses two guards, two forwards and one center for the First, Second and Third Teams. Players receive five points for First Team votes, three points for Second Team votes and one point for Third Team votes.
If a player receives votes at multiple positions, that player will be placed at the position in which he received the most votes.
