Jacob Toppin

Draft Notes

Obi’s younger brother had a strong freshman season at Rhode Island before transferring to Kentucky, where he’ll train with the talented wildcats squad and try to develop into an NBA draft pick.

Jacob is a long 6-7 combo forward with springy legs and great above the rim ability. He’s got a bright basketball future once he develops his skill level and expands his offensive game to the 3pt line.
