Penny was a full two years older than Amen when entering the NBA, though I'd say Penny's a 95%-ile outcome for Amen.
Some other guys who slid in their drafts on draft day Darrell Arthur, Perry Jones, Gerald Green, Bol Bol, Chris Taft, and now Cam Whitmore. Me...
Simmons was negative value since that game 7 against the Hawks, and Harden didn't want out of Brooklyn at the start of the year.
The big exception I can think of in recent years where the players both weren't injured and turned out to be a super star were the KD...
Jalen gets clowned on for making his metrosexual fashion videos, now gets clowned on when working at the gym. Ol' boy can't win.
The Lakers went from their worst record in team history to a title in 4 years. Sure, it involved LeBron coming over, but stilll.
To be fair, he did eventually trade Simmons for Harden and only gave up one first to do so.
The harsh reality is that one of Green, Sengun, Bari, or Amen have to turn into a bona-fide super star in order for the team to avoid being 1st...

Forget that, just not take Harden at all and luck into Giannis, then take Jokic with your higher 2nd round pick in 2014! I really can't get mad...
13 of 23 isn't that impressive when over half the teams make the playoffs anyways, those Post-Yao Pre-Harden years were what I'd call hopeless,...
If a 35 year old center can't accept a bench role for more money then he has a Dillon Brooks sized ego.
The Thompson twins have to be good to legitimatize that league, and not just be the second coming of the JBA.
Undersized big who couldn't shoot, and didn't have the athleticism to be a Montrezl/Manimal type player. Still, out of the league at 22 is something.
