The reigning back-to-back NBA Most Valuable Player averaged 27.1 points, 13.8 rebound and 7.9 assists per game.
He led the league with 15.2 win shares and a 9.8 VORP. He led the NBA with a 32.8 player efficiency rating.
Jokic did all that despite the fact that Denver was without point guard Jamal Murray and forward Michael Porter Jr.
Denver finished 48-34 and reached the playoffs thanks to his efforts.
The four-time All-Star has made three All-NBA First Teams and one All-NBA Second Team.
Antetokounmpo is a basketball player for the Bucks.
Antetokounmpo, a nine-year veteran and six-time All-Star, averaged a career-high 29.9 points, as well as 11.6 rebound and 5.8 assists per game this year. The two-time NBA Most Valuable Player finished third in the voting this season behind Jokic and the runner-up, and led the Milwaukee Bucks to the third seed in the Eastern Conference playoffs.
He won the NBA championship in 2020 and the NBA finals in 2021. He has been on the All-NBA First Team for four years in a row.
The only other NBA player with a current First Team streak is Antetokounmpo, who had 31.7 points, 14.2 rebound and 6.8 assists per game in the playoffs.
Suns G.
The Suns finished with the best record in the league. He averaged a career-best 26.8 points per game this year, but the season ended with a seven-game loss to the Mavs in the second round, but he deserves a lot of credit for that.
He and Chris Paul formed the NBA's best backcourt, and the two also guided Phoenix to top four offensive and defensive efficiency ratings. Booker had a great season, and now he is an All-NBA team member.
Luka Doncic is a member of the Mavericks.
In his four-year NBA career, the young man averaged 28.4 points, 9.1 rebound and 8.7 assists per game for the fifth-seeded Mavs.
He did all that despite the fact that the Mavs made a huge change to their roster and traded Kristaps to the Wizards.
After upsetting the top-seeded Suns in the second round of the playoffs, Doncic led the Mavs to the Western Conference Finals. In the Suns series, Luka Magic averaged 32.6 points.
Doncic won the NBA's rookies of the year award as well as being an All-Star and three-time All-NBA First Team member.
Celtics F.
In his five-year career, he has made three All-Star teams and two All-NBA teams. Things looked bleak this season after the C's got off to a moribund 25-25 start, but Tatum catapulted the squad to a tremendous finish and the No. 2 seed in the East.
In the first round, a potentially dangerous match-up with Kevin Durant and the Brooklyn Nets was looming, but the C's swept them. They took down the Milwaukee Bucks in seven second-round games and are now tied with the Miami Heat in the Eastern Conference Finals.
He could very well be on his way to leading Boston to its first title since 2008, after he broke out into one of the game's elite stars this year.
