Steph Curry makes All-NBA first team
I know, so surprising.
You all knew this news was coming, but let’s celebrate it anyway. Golden State Warriors superstar Steph Curry has been named to the All-NBA first team.
It’s Curry’s fourth selection to the first team, and his seventh overall selection to the All-NBA team.

Curry was voted to the first team by 98 of the 100 media members who had All-NBA ballots. The other two voters selected him to their second-team ballots.
Joining Curry on the first team is Nikola Jokić (Denver Nuggets), Giannis Antetokounmpo (Milwaukee Bucks), Luka Dončić (Dallas Mavericks), and Kawhi Leonard (Los Angeles Clippers).
The second team consists of Damian Lillard (Portland Trail Blazers), Joel Embiid (Philadelphia 76ers), LeBron James (Los Angeles Lakers), Chris Paul (Phoenix Suns), and Julius Randle (New York Knicks), while the third team features Jimmy Butler (Miami Heat), Kyrie Irving (Brooklyn Nets), Rudy Gobert (Utah Jazz), Bradley Beal (Washington Wizards), and Paul George (Los Angeles Clippers).
Curry was not the only Warrior to receive All-NBA consideration, as Draymond Green received a third-team vote at center.
Congrats to the chef, and here’s to many more.
