The Knicks officially announced their trade by sending Obi Toppin to the Indiana Pacers on Friday afternoon. League sources confirmed to SNY’s Ian Begley that New York is recovering two future second-round draft picks: the less favorable 2028 second-round picks from the Pacers and the Phoenix Suns and the less favorable 2029 second-round picks from the Pacers and the Phoenix Suns.
Washington Wizards round pick. The Pacers, according to Begley, are “excited to have a young, athletic player in Obi Toppin who fits into the timeline of ‘fellow youngsters Tyrese Haliburton and Bennedict Mathurin’ and could be a complementary piece up front with Myles Turner.” “I’m sure Toppin is excited about the Indy opportunity”, added Begley.
