It might not take the sting out of the season ending sooner than we expected, but recognition is always preferred to being overlooked. The Milwaukee Bucks have, according to The Athletic’s Shams Charania, had two of their top defenders named to the league’s All-Defensive teams for the 2021-22 season.

2021-22 NBA All-Defensive teams:

First team: Giannis Antetokounmpo, Mikal Bridges, Rudy Gobert, Jaren Jackson Jr., Marcus Smart

Second team: Bam Adebayo, Draymond Green, Jrue Holiday, Matisse Thybulle, Robert Williams III— Shams Charania (@ShamsCharania) May 21, 2022

For Giannis, this marks his fourth consecutive First Team selection (he also has a single Second Team season), solidifying his reputation as an annual lock for one of the top two forward spots for the foreseeable future.
