Hours after Obi Toppin announced his intentions to declare for the NBA draft, his parents have started discussing their hopes for their son to end up on the best team possible when he officially becomes a pro.

Speaking on the Raising Fame podcast, Obadiah and Roni Toppin said they'd love for the Dayton Flyers star to join the Golden State Warriors and they had a particularly good reason why.

"I got my few point guards that I always dreamed of playing for, just because they were the truest point guards—like Steph Curry," Toppin's father, a former semi-pro player and street baller, said via NBC Sports.
