Based on 2024-25 Defensive Player of the Year voting results, it appears very likely that Amen Thompson will earn All-Defensive First Team honors.

Butler took a hard fall after Thompson collided with him during Wednesday's opening-round playoff game. Butler had been going up for a rebound and was undercut, sending him crashing to the floor. The Warriors star, who came to the team ahead of the NBA's trade deadline, was ruled out with a pelvis contusion.

When asked about Amen Thompson, Dillon Brooks turned the spotlight on Draymond Green, calling him a “dirty player.”
