Going into the 2019-20 NCAA basketball season, some NBA scouts were keeping their eye on the University of Dayton’s Obi Toppin, who was going into his sophomore season. After putting up 14.4 points and 5.6 rebounds as a redshirt freshman, Toppin put in the work over the summer to become a bonafide first-round talent.
He didn’t disappoint during his second year with the program. Toppin averaged 20.0 points and 7.5 boards over 31 games with the Flyers. He ranked 20th in the nation in scoring and quickly introduced himself to the NBA world with highlight-reel dunks. The 6’9 forward’s athleticism is second-to-none.
