I'm pretty down on Toppin. Watched all the tape I could find online and the defensive concerns are legit. he's for sure a tweener. Simultaneously, I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up being a top 15 scorer in the NBA with additional spacing and adequate attempts. The temptation is real, but I hope Koby leaves it at that.
Stats like scoring are enticing but if your team plays no defense and is often losing 135-125, you will have some players necessarily score a bunch of points. To win you need players that also make it easier for others to score on your team and make it harder for people to score on the other team.
