1 Milwaukee Bucks Star Shockingly Snubbed From All-NBA Honors Despite Solid 2023-24 Season

The season turned out well for him in Milwaukee because they ended up as the third seed. However, the team’s loss to the Pacers in six games caused quite a stir, with one overreaction calling for Lillard to be shipped off to another team.

To make things worse, he got snubbed from being recognized as one of the league’s top 15 players when he put up solid enough stats to be included.

Damian Lillard got snubbed from any All-NBA team despite solid season for the Milwaukee Bucks

The NBA released the final results of the voting that decided which players would end up on the three All-NBA teams. While most of the players who got selected deserved their spots, it’s quite surprising to see one particular absence from the list:

Milwaukee Bucks fans would be the first to cry injustice over Lillard’s snub. It’s hard to believe that a player who averaged 24.3 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 7.0 assists while shooting 42.4% from the floor and 35.4% from deep at 33 years old is not worth an All-NBA vote.

Moreover, one can argue that players like DeMar DeRozan and Victor Wembanyama would have no business getting votes. Some may argue that Lillard’s place in the Bucks roster as the number two option hurt his chances, but that doesn’t justify Dame Time not getting any love from the press at all.

If there’s one thing Milwaukee fans can positively take from this, Lillard will likely use the snub as fuel to put up an even better performance for the team next year.
