“I’m honored to be named to the All-NBA Team,” said Anthony. “I would like to thank my teammates and coaches for helping me achieve this recognition because I couldn’t have done it without them. I would also like to thank those in the media who voted for me. I have a busy summer ahead of me with my charity projects, playing for Team USA and preparing for a big ‘07-08 season. This is a great way to get it started.”

Anthony ranked second in the NBA in scoring with a career-high 28.9 ppg - the highest ranking by a Nugget since Alex English led the league in 1982-83, the fourth-highest scoring average by a Nugget in team history and the most since English averaged 29.8 in 1985-86. He scored at least 30 points a career-high 34 times in 65 games this season - the fifth-highest single-season mark in team history (English also had 34 in 1984-85). He also averaged a career-high 3.8 apg and a career-high-tying 1.18 spg.

Anthony was named the Western Conference Player of the Month for April after leading the Nuggets to a 10-1 record with averages of 28.5 ppg, 6.5 rpg and 3.5 apg. It was the second time in his career that he had been named Western Conference Player of the Month (March 2006). In addition, he was also selected as the Western Conference Player of the Week three times this season (11/27, 12/3, 2/11).

In February, Anthony made his first NBA All-Star appearance in Las Vegas where he posted 20 points (10-15 FG) and nine rebounds in 25 minutes.

In addition to Anthony's 142 points received (one first team vote), Nuggets center Marcus Camby received 42 points (two first team votes) and guard Allen Iverson received 39 points.

The 129-member voting panel of writers and broadcasters throughout the United States and Canada consisted of national media members and members from each of the league’s 30 teams who regularly cover the NBA. The media voted for All-NBA First, Second and Third Teams by position with points awarded on a 5-3-1 basis.
