The Knicks and Pacers finalized the Obi Toppin trade

It took a while, but the Knicks and Pacers finalized the Obi Toppin trade on Friday afternoon. We knew the Knicks would be getting two second-round picks for their former lottery pick, but which two seconds, exactly? Here are the details:

  • Least favorable of Pacers’ and Suns’ 2028 second-round pick
  • Least favorable of Pacers’ and Wizards’ 2029 second-round pick

So not only does the return for Obi amount to a couple of second-rounders that won’t convey until the end of the decade, the Pacers will get to keep the higher second-round picks in both 2028 and 2029.
