Have you look at the rosters for the Utah Jazz and Minnesota Timberwolves? They are really young. Their average age (30 players) is 25.2, and a huge part of that is because KD is TWICE as old as most everyone on these two teams. I broke it down, and grouped them by 1st rounders, 2nd rounders, and undrafted players.

That's really young.
If you take away Garnett and Martin the average age becomes 24.4. As far as I understand if the team bus breaks down they can't even rent a car. Besides being young, so many players were lotto picks, and 11 of the 1st rounders are on rookie contracts right now. Crazy.
