This is KD's third first team at age 23. For reference Kobe didn't get his third first team until 25 and Lebron didn't get his til 24
Westbrook gets his second 2nd team award. This would've qualified him for the "Durant/Rose rule" contract extension that he passed on when he signed his contract with OKC. That's a significant amount of money that Russ passed on.
Congratulations guys!
OKC award breakdown this year:
Durant - All-NBA first team. Third consecutive scoring title. 2nd in MVP. (Already 23rd all-time in MVP award shares)
Westbrook - All-NBA second team
Ibaka - All-NBA first team defense, 2nd in DPOY
Harden - Sixth man of the Year.
