The NBA All Defensive Team is an annual National Basketball Association NBA honor given since the 1968 69 NBA season to the best defensive players during the regular season The All Defensive Team is generally composed of ten players in two five man lineups a first and a second team Voting is conducted by a panel of 123 writers and broadcasters Prior to the 2013 14 NBA season voting was performed by the NBA head coaches who were restricted from voting for players on their own team The players each receive two points for each first team vote and one point for each second team vote The top five players with the highest point total make the first team with the next five making the second team In the case of a tie at the fifth position of either team the roster is expanded If the first team consists of six players due to a tie the second team will still consist of five players with the potential for more expansion in the event of additional ties Ties have occurred several times most recently in 2013 when Tyson Chandler and Joakim Noah tied in votes received Starting with the 2023 24 season players must appear in at least 65 games out of the normal 82 game schedule to be eligible for most major regular season playing awards and honors including the All Defensive Team To receive credit for a game for purposes of award eligibility a player must have been credited with at least 20 minutes played However two near misses in which the player appeared for 15 to 19 minutes can be included in the 65 game count Protections also exist for players who suffer season ending injuries who are eligible with 62 credited games and those affected by what the CBA calls bad faith circumstances Also starting with the 2023 24 season the All Defensive Teams were no longer bound by position Tim Duncan holds the record for the most total selections to the All Defensive Team with 15 Kevin Garnett and Kobe Bryant follow with 12 total honors each and Kareem Abdul Jabbar has 11 total
