Five All-NBA First-Team selections in his first six seasons puts the Slovenian in rarified air
Dallas Mavericks superstar Luka Doncic has been named to the 2023-24 NBA All-NBA First-Team, as announced on TNT before Wednesday night's Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals. It is Doncic's 5th consecutive appearance on the First Team in just his sixth season, as he averaged 33.9 PPG, 9.8 APG, and 9.2 RPG. He appears on the first team with Denver's Nikola Jokic, Oklahoma City's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Milwaukee's Giannis Antetokounmpo, and Boston's Jayson Tatum.
Only three Mavericks have ever made any All-NBA team: Doncic, Nowitzki, and Steve Nash. Doncic can already be considered one of the two best players in franchise history at just 25 years old and no one would bat an eye, but it'll take winning a championship before he's put in the same conversations as Nowitzki. He has a strong chance to do so this season, with his Mavericks in the conference finals for the second time in the last three seasons.
