I think the other thing with Toppin is that Dayton just sort of let him be an athlete. I think he can still be sculpted as a basketball player, and that there's still some upside there. I mean, he grew four inches during his postgraduate year, so he's still learning to be a natural big.
That's a great point! I don't think he'll be there at 8, and even though I'm not a huge fan of his defensive ceiling, I would get it if the Knicks went that route. Anyway, belated thanks for reading and taking the time to comment!
