The 2021-22 Kia NBA All-Defensive Team was selected by a global panel of 100 sportswriters and broadcasters. Players were awarded two points for each vote to the NBA All-Defensive First Team and one point for each vote to the Second Team. Voters selected two guards, two forwards and one center for each team, choosing players at the position they play regularly. Players who received votes at multiple positions were slotted at the position at which they received the most voting points.
Below are the results of the voting for the All-Defensive teams. You would imagine Green would have made the First Team had he not missed a substantial portion of the season.
Green played in 46 of a possible 82 games in the 2022 season after dealing with a disc injury.
