They were also the top five vote-getters in the rookie of the year balloting.
Detroit teammates Jaden Ivey and Jalen Duren made the second team, as did Houston teammates Jabari Smith Jr. and Tari Eason, along with San Antonio’s Jeremy Sochan.
The NBA's All-Defensive team will be revealed Tuesday, and All-NBA will be announced Wednesday.
