efficient, physical frontcourt piece with real finishing pop
Toppin is a strong-fit forward who brings efficient interior scoring, rebounding, and veteran pro experience from recent international play, where he averaged 10.0 points and 4.5 rebounds in 2024-25 while shooting 66.0% from the field and 36.4% from three. He also showed event-level production, including a 26-point game on 10-of-14 two-point shooting in 2023, suggesting he can punish mismatches and finish through contact. For a team, the appeal is his low-drama, high-efficiency frontcourt profile; the main question is how well that scoring translates against higher-level athleticism and pace.[3][1][2]
