On paper, Kentucky forward Jacob Toppin is a living, breathing mismatch capable of taking games over at will. Standing 6’9″ with a 45-inch max vertical jump and 6’11” wingspan, he’s got all of the physical tools you dream of in a four, along with shot-making ability out to the perimeter. It’s why draft buzz was real going into his senior campaign, ready to finally turn that potential into production with keys in-hand at his position.
Again, on paper.
