Obi Toppin has established himself as a college highlight at Dayton University, so it was fitting that he had brought those moves to his first preseason game on Friday with the New York Knicks.
The eighth overall pick recorded 11 points, seven rebounds, an assist and a shot blocked in 20 minutes from the bench in a 90-84 win over the Detroit Pistons. He wasted little time getting to work after scoring six points alone in the first quarter.
Knicks fans were understandably excited to see how Toppin played during his debut game. The organization has high hopes for Toppin this year, and now also some fans who were supporting him after the match on social media.
