The league announced all three of its All-NBA teams on Wednesday, and Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander made the first team.

Gilgeous-Alexander enjoyed the best season of his career. He averaged 31.4 points on 51% shooting, 5.5 assists and 4.8 rebounds. He earned his first All-Star berth, finished No. 2 in Most Improved Player voting and was top five in MVP voting this season.

Let’s look at some of the best tweets celebrating Gilgeous-Alexander’s biggest career accomplishment.
