Harden scored 10 points! He can renew his contract for 360 million for 4 years, and Edwards made a lot of money!

In the first team of the year, the players selected were "Antetokounmpo" Giannis Antetokounmpo, Alexander, Jokic, Mitchell and Tatum, which is basically not controversial.

In the second team of the year, the selected players are Brunson, Curry, Edwards, James and Mobley, which is quite reasonable.

In the third team of the year, the selected players were Cunningham, Halliburton, Harden, Towns and Jaylen Williams. To be honest, it's not bad, but it's a bit controversial.

As the second and fourth-ranked team in the Western Conference this season, the Houston Rockets did not even have any player selected for any of the best teams, which is indeed a bit surprising. The Rockets' most promising player to be selected is center Shin Kyung, who averaged 19.1 points, 10.3 rebounds, 4.9 assists and 1.1 steals per game this season, and was selected for the All-Star team for the first time in his career.

However, in the voting, Shin Kyung got 6 second-team votes and 40 third-team votes, a total of 58 points. The lowest score in the third lineup was Harden. He got 4 second-team votes and 56 third-team votes, totaling 68 points, so he directly "killed" Shin Kyung with a slight advantage of 10 points.

being selected for this best team of the year is actually very beneficial for players, because many players have reward terms in their contracts, which require them to be selected for the best team of the year or win awards such as MVP.

For Edwards, it is important to be selected for the second team of the year this year. As long as he continues to be selected for any team of the year next season, he can renew a four-year, $360 million contract with the Minnesota Timberwolves in advance. He will also become the first player in NBA history to have an average annual salary of $90 million.
