The All-NBA teams dropped on Wednesday, and fans questioned a few players’ omissions, namely Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown, Philadelph ia 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey and San Antonio Spurs big man Victor Wembanyama.

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.
