Recent examples are Blake Griffin and Chris Paul...going to All Star games by year 2 in the league.
to be fair griffin missed his entire first year with an injury so technically he made it his rookie year. just pointing this out because i completely agree with your point

you know what team griffin had his first triple double against? yup, the wizards
