When the New York Knicks drafted Obi Toppin with the eighth overall selection in the 2020 NBA draft, some saw the move as malpractice, considering the team needed a point guard desperately.
However, Toppin bleeds confidence in every category, which should excite Knick fans and the coaching staff that is preparing to help him with his transition to the NBA. However, Toppin is one of the more NBA-ready players coming out of the draft, standing at 6-foot-9 and 220 pounds. The power forward is a dunk machine from Dayton but originates from Ossining, NY.
Obi showed up to camp in excellent shape, despite not playing any summer league ball.
