Summary
Jalen Johnson just earned All-NBA Third Team honors for the 2025-26 season, marking his first such selection and the Hawks’ first All-NBA player since Trae Young in 2021-22. After stepping into the starting role when Trae Young and Kristaps Porzingis were moved, Johnson delivered a breakout year with 22.5 points, 10.3 rebounds, and 7.9 assists per game — cementing his status as the team’s new leader. Despite a first-round playoff exit, his All-Star performance and All-NBA nod signal the dawn of a new era for Atlanta, with Johnson poised to lead the charge into the future.
