Knicks: Jacob Toppin had a strong G League season despite quiet play on the NBA squad
Toppin had an impressive season with the Westchester Knicks in the NBA G League during 2023-24. The 6-foot-8, 200-pound combo forward averaged 19.8 points, 8.6 rebounds, 1.1 blocks, and 0.9 steals per game, shooting 48.2 percent from the field over 25 games.
However, when he joined the Knicks’ NBA squad, the 24-year-old didn’t get much opportunity to showcase his skills. He appeared in only nine games, averaging 4.2 minutes per game and contributing 1.4 points on 55.6 percent shooting from the field.
Toppin will compete for time as the Knicks’ backup forward again in 2024-25
