The All-NBA teams dropped on Wednesday, and fans questioned a few players' omissions, namely Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown, Philadelphia 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey and San Antonio Spurs big man Victor Wembanyama.
Shams Charania @ShamsCharania2023-24 All-NBA:<br><br>1st: Nikola Jokic, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Luka Doncic, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Jayson Tatum<br><br>2nd: Jalen Brunson, Anthony Davis, Kevin Durant, Anthony Edwards, Kawhi Leonard<br><br>3rd: Devin Booker, Stephen Curry, Tyrese Haliburton, LeBron James, Domantas Sabonis
NBA Communications @NBAPRThe complete voting results for the 2023-24 Kia All-NBA Team: <a href="">
Brown, Maxey and Wembanyama weren't the only superstars who didn't make the cut. Some missed out because of the NBA's new 65-game minimum requirement to be considered for awards and All-NBA team consideration.
That in turn eliminated some big names, including 2024 All-Stars Joel Embiid, Scottie Barnes, Donovan Mitchell, Karl-Anthony Towns and Trae Young.
Another big name, Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo, wasn't thrilled about missing All-NBA.

However, fans made their thoughts known about Brown, Maxey and Wembanyama missing out.
Brown averaged 23.0 points on 49.9 percent shooting, 5.5 rebounds and 3.6 assists for the 64-18 Celtics, the league's best regular-season team.
Maxey enjoyed a tremendous breakout season in his fourth NBA campaign, averaging 25.9 points on 45.0 percent shooting and 6.2 assists.
Wembanyama met all the tremendous hype and then some in his rookie season, posting 21.4 points, 10.6 rebounds and 3.6 blocks per game. He's certainly on track to become an All-NBA player as soon as next year.
All three players made their All-NBA cases, but the trio missed out. Some fans revealed their takes on the matter.
Ali @aliglenn23Jaylen Brown snubbed. Should absolutely be over Booker or Haliburton smh <a href="">
tommyvon.bsky.social @tommyvonNo Jaylen Brown?! He's better than half this list easily <a href="">
Leo @canfdyuJaylen Brown robbed. Suns and Lakers had more All-NBA players than the Celtics. Atrocious voting.
☘️💚Celtics Contessa💚☘️ @CelticsContessaJaylen Brown did not make it but Devon Booker did - Jaylen revenge tour coming <a href=""> <a href="">
Big Steph ☘️ @stephneguhJaylen Brown the most disrespected player in the league dawg. <a href="">
Yoshi @Tatums_HairlineDomantas Sabonis over JAYLEN BROWN TYRESE MAXEY AND PAOLO BANCHERO?<a href="">#NBA</a>
Chris Forsberg @ChrisForsberg_Jaylen Brown snubbed in All-NBA. He was the top vote-getter among those that didn't land on an All-NBA team. <br><br>64 wins. 7+ games better than every team in league. 1 All-NBA player. 🤷🏻♂️ <a href="">
Bernie @BernieKnowsBallTyrese Maxey deserved it over Kawhi and no one can tell me otherwise
Noah Monroe @thenoahmonroeTyrese Maxey only received 16 points???? <a href="">
Blake Devine @Big_Devine76Tyrese Maxey was robbed <a href="">
⚡️ @Je77yLayno all nba for <a href="">@TyreseMaxey</a> is insane. Stepped up and took his game to another level when harden jumped ship. that's disappointing lol.
Collin Pryce @Collin_PryceTyrese Maxey got ROBBED of being on an All-NBA team 🤦♂️
Eric Adamcik 🇵🇸 @RealEricAdamcikSabonis over Tyrese Maxey is amazingly bad!<br>He's not even the King who should've made it.<br><br>All-NBA is definitely getting a a "participation trophy" vibe <a href="">
Jason Cowboysfan @JasonCowboysManit's the whole media fault Wemby should been selected <a href="">#PorVida</a> <a href="">
OnlyFacts @The8lackMamba24These two know ball. <a href="">#KiaAllNBA</a> <a href="">#Wemby</a> <a href="">
Ian Panchèvre ᯅ @IanPanchevreWemby got robbed. Should have made All NBA!!
Big Bone © @steb0neMaybe I'm biased and maybe wins factor into these votes but I don't think Kawhi had a better season than Wemby <a href="">
Chase Peterson @chaserthelazerWemby also snubbed for all nba <a href="">
Huskie_Ninja @Casey_P_SandCHow is <a href="">@wemby</a> not on the All NBA list? <a href="">@NBA</a>
Although Brown, Maxey and Wembanyama didn't make All-NBA this year, they could all very well find themselves there in 2024-25 given their success.
Brown also is playing for something more important than All-NBA as his Celtics fight for the NBA title. Boston took a 1-0 lead in the Eastern Conference Finals on Tuesday with a 133-128 overtime win over the Indiana Pacers.
