Warriors’ Brandin Podziemski reacts to Trayce Jackson-Davis all-rookie snub

The NBA released its 2024 All-Rookie team on Monday, which featured standout youngsters such as Victor Wenbanyama, Chet Holmgren, and Brandon Miller. Another slightly less heralded player on the list was Golden State Warriors guard Brandon Podziemski, who led the league with 38 charges drawn.

Podziemski was surprised, however, that teammate Trayce Jackson-Davis wasn’t included, via his X account.

“@TrayceJackson was snubbed,” he said plainly.

Jackson-Davis came close to being selected to the All-Rookie second team but was barely beaten out by Memphis Grizzlies forward GG Jackson II. Jackson-Davis, who finished 11th in All-Rookie voting with 42 votes, was just one point behind Jackson for the 10th and final spot. The top five vote-getters earn first-team honors, while six through ten get second-team.

Was Podziemski right, or was he being biased towards his teammate?

Podziemski might have had some Warriors bias with his take

While it’s admirable that Podziemski stuck up for his teammate, it’s hard to argue that he belongs on the list over any of the selected players.
