LaMelo Ball and Anthony Edwards finished 1-2 in Rookie of the Year voting.
When it came time for the All-Rookie Team, they were the only two unanimous first-team choices.
Ball and Edwards finished with 99 first-team votes from select media members, while the Kings’ Tyrese Haliburton finished with 98 first-team votes and one second-team vote.
Here is the full first and second teams, including their points from voters (two points for a first-team vote, one for second-team):

Twitter outrage over All-Rookie Team snubs is an annual tradition, and this year Cole Anthony led the party.

It should be noted, plenty of players miss making either team and then have a significant impact the following season. One year ago, RJ Barrett (Knicks), Matisse Thybulle (76ers), and Mikal Bridges (Suns) did not get All-Rookie nods and had big impacts this season.
