Obi Toppin played 20 playoff minutes and pulled down eight rebounds, five on the offensive glass. He added five points and an assist.
“I felt like I was a lot more physical on the glass on Sunday, so I basically knew what I had to do going into the game to get the win,” Toppin told reporters.
Toppin had five rebounds in the fourth quarter and was part of the pack that led the Knicks’ breakaway from a 75-75 deadlock.
