The Euroleague continues to publish awards and season titles before the Final Four. After Yam Mader was named the rising star of the season and Yorgos Bartzukas was named the outstanding coach, the first team of the season was announced on Monday, chosen by the votes of coaches, captains and fans.
Maccabi Tel Aviv sent one representative there - Lorenzo Brown, who was one of the Yellows' most important players in their quest for the playoffs, which ended in elimination after a fifth and decisive game against Monaco.
Alongside Braun, Dejan Moussa (Real Madrid), Sasha Vezenkov (Olympiacos), Matthias Lessor (Partizan Belgrade) and Walter Tavares (Real Madrid) appear in the quintet.

Baldwin doesn't understand how he's not inside
Maccabi Tel Aviv also responded: Baldwin deserved to be chosen alongside Brown
Brown set Euroleague career records this season in almost every statistical category. He was the only player in the Euroleague to finish in the top 5 in points (16.4) and assists (5.5) and was not far from ranking in the top 1 in steals (1.<>). Even a poor performance in the playoff series against Monaco, including a very lukewarm performance in the game for qualifying for the Final Four, did not prevent Brown from receiving the award and recognition.
"His composure in critical situations allowed Maccabi Tel Aviv to win some big games, and helped the team turn this season into a winning one," the Euroleague website said.
This means that Wade Baldwin, one of the Euroleague's second-half greats, will likely be included in the second team this season. Shortly after the team's publication, and when it became clear that he was not on the team, Baldwin tweeted the stats, which should speak for themselves: Among guards in the league, Howe finished the season with the most points, seventh in assists, first in rebounds and first in efficiency. In the playoffs, he finished second in points, first in assists and second in efficiency.
