He averaged 8.8 rebounds, 1.9 blocks, and 1.6 steals, and became just the fifth player in NBA history to lead his team in all five major categories.
Antetokonmpo, 22, was selected to the general All-NBA second team last month. He is a finalist for Most Improved Player, alongside Denver's Nikola Jokic and Utah's Rudy Gobert.
Guard Malcolm Brogdon was also named to the NBA All-Rookie first team.
