Know the Prospect: Obi Toppin

OK, Jim. Today we’re here to weigh in on the long-limbed, high center of gravity, 6’9”, 220, 22 years old sophomore sensation, Obi Toppin! Men amongst boys at the college level. He’s a Bushwick-born, Florida-fled, Ossining Pride product by way of Mount Zion Prep and the Dayton Flyers of Ohio.

A modern big who shoots down some three point bucks and can certainly raise up for a large dunkaccino. Big Obi won both the Wooden and Naismith awards this year, just like the Liberty’s prized rookie, Sabrina Ionescu. Could be fun to have the awards twins in town.
