The New York Knicks-Obi Toppin trade rumors have quieted down over the past week, but on the day that free agency’s set to begin, they’ve picked right back up.
According to NBA insider Marc Stein, “the Pacers have emerged as a leading trade suitor” for the 25-year-old forward. Toppin has been linked to Indiana for months now, and a trade could finally be made official soon.
Most Knicks fans wanted to see Chris Duarte go to New York in a Toppin-Pacers trade, but Duarte was dealt to Sacramento on Friday morning. It’s important to note that deal hasn’t been made official yet.
