That's certainly his archetype, but it seems highly unlikely he ever sniffs that level
Granted development is not linear, but when Amar'e was Toppin's age he was a top 10 player in the league and averaged 37 and 10 in the WCF.
It doesn't mean Toppin can't get there, but it's unlikely.
Wow hard to believe a guy without a 3pt shot could average that if his name isn't Shaq.
Stoudemire was the poster boy for successful microfracture surgery, but it didn't last too long.
As to your point, yeah, Toppin would have to improve significantly very quickly to even get into that convo.
