Jacob Toppin is a two-way player for the New York Knicks, projected to have a marginal role this season. With the Knicks lacking prospects under standard contracts, Toppin is expected to make an impact with the Westchester Knicks in the G League, aiming to earn minutes with the NBA team. His success in the G League will be crucial for his development and potential opportunities at the NBA level.

Jacob Toppin had a chance to tie or win the game for the Knicks in the Summer League opener against the Hornets but missed a potential game-tying layup in the final seconds, resulting in a 94-90 loss.

The Knicks traded Obi Toppin away to the Indiana Pacers but signed his younger brother, Jacob Toppin, who split his time his rookie season between Madison Square Garden and Westchester in the G-League. The younger Toppin is just as athletic as his older brother, but made it a point to note they are not the same person or player.
