The distribution of its individual awards completed, the NBA now begins to announce the best five of the season starting, as usual, with that of the best rookies.
Unsurprisingly, the All Rookie First Team » includes the three finalists for the Rookie of the Year 2023 trophy: the winner Paolo Banchero (Magic), the only one to have unanimous support, as well as Jalen Williams (Thunder) and Walker Kessler (Jazz). A trio accompanied by Keegan Murray (Kings) and Bennedict Mathurin (Pacers).
Which leaves us, therefore, with a All Rookie Second Team ” made of Jaden Ivey (Piston), Jabari Smith Jr. (Rockets), Jeremy Sochan (Spurs), Jalen Duren (pistons) and Tari Eason (Rockets).
Just behind in terms of votes, but therefore absent from both teams, we find Andrew Nembhard (Pacers), Shaedon Sharpe (Blazers) or even AJ Griffin (Hawks).
