Overview
- A 100‑member global media panel voted Dončić onto the All‑NBA First Team on Sunday, granting him 91 First Team votes and nine Second Team votes.
- The NBA/NBPA accepted Dončić’s Extraordinary Circumstances Challenge, making him award‑eligible despite playing 64 qualifying games because he missed two December games for the birth of his daughter and later sustained an injury.
- Dončić led the league in scoring at 33.5 points per game and averaged 8.3 assists, 7.7 rebounds and 1.6 steals across the season.
- He suffered a Grade 2 left hamstring strain in early April that ended his regular season after 64 qualified games and shaped questions about his availability for awards.
- The honor is Dončić’s sixth All‑NBA selection and his first as a Laker, capping a season of historic scoring stretches including a 60‑point game and two Western Conference Player of the Month awards.
