For the Third Time in Career, Joel Embiid Makes All-NBA Team

Just one day after making an All-NBA Defensive Team, Joel Embiid added to his list of accomplishments this year by making the overall All-NBA Second team. This means he is considered to be one of the top 10 players in the NBA this year and he would undoubtedly have gotten the first-team spot if it was not for Nikola Jokic and the positional restrictions.

Embiid was nothing short of terrific this year. He averaged 28.5 points (4th in NBA), 10.6 rebounds (11th in NBA), 2.8 assists, 1.4 blocks (13th in NBA), and 1 steal per game.
