Just copying this over to the new page.

No on both Burfict and Warner. I guess Warner wasn't considered a "rookie".

EDIT: Warner didn't win ROY in 1999, so I guess in the NFL even being on a roster for a year like he was in 1998 counts as your rookie year.

No to all those Balkan countries. A lot of players from around there but only 1 from each nation somehow. I wish there was a word for how they were all split up like that.

Towns was born in, as they say in the DR, Edison, Nuevo Jersey

Embiid is from Cameroon. As is Pascal Siakam. Correct answer. But I had missed that one originally anyway, and I just found yet another. So there's still two more.

One is stupidly Switzerland, home of Clint Capela and birthplace of Nikola Vucevic. The other is straightforward and cool.

Name four U.S. colleges that are also colors (Syracuse Orange doesn't count because "Orange" is the nickname, not the name of the institution).

It's easy now, but that question reminded me of the one about the four schools (at the time I heard this) in NCAA division-1 football whose mascots don't end in S and do not have a color in the name.
