Fair point.  Exceptions do exist.  Hell the reigning MVP, Steph Curry, is a perfect example.  But, I'm guessing if you actually broke down the percentage of NBA players from non P5 schools in the last 10 years it would be very minimal.

I don't have the time or energy to do the research, but I'd also be curious how those guys you listed did as freshman in college?  Did they excel their entire career in college or come on late?  Getting to the NBA as a non P5 happens, but how often does it happen after a lackluster freshman campaign?  I'm also curious if any of the players you named made the NBA after a college career that included a transfer?

Also, I understand that he was under the radar in high school and did not garner much interest from college programs.  BUT now that it's widely known that Syracuse has expressed interest, where are the other programs who want him?  Iona and Seton Hall... anyone else?

Thanks for the good post.
