Would you bet your money against Chet Holmgren becoming the first rookie to make an All-NBA team since Tim Duncan in 1998? (alien.top)

It’s a very rate feat. The last ones who did it were:

  • Tim Duncan (1998)

  • David Robinson (1990)

  • Michael Jordan (1985)

  • Larry Bird (1980)

Kareem and Wilt also did it. It was a bit more common in the past because players would usually spent 3-4 years in college before entering the NBA.

Its completely positionless so top 15 guys

curry shai luka hali lebron kd tatum giannis embiid jokic

then 5 spots for like 15 guys at the next level which he is in, but the odds are against him. Especially considering voters know hes a rookie

How many of those guys played 65 games last year? I realize more will try to hit 65 going forward but you can’t just assume all those slots are locked up.
