Knicks bring back Jacob Toppin on two-way contract
NY Post
The Knicks are bringing back Jacob Toppin.
The younger brother of former Knicks lottery pick Obi Toppin agreed to a two-way contract, the team announced on Wednesday.
The 6-foot-8 Toppin appeared in just nine regular season games with the Knicks last year, but he did average 19.8 points, 8.5 rebounds and 2.7 assists in 25 games with the Westchester Knicks in the G-League.
The former Kentucky forward remains a developmental player.
The Knicks also have rookies and second-round picks Ariel Hukporti and Kevin McCullar on two-way contracts.

Cade Cunningham, almost inarguably the best player in the East this season, is likely out for the remainder of the regular season. That’s the word out of Detroit following the depressing news that Cunningham punctured a lung when he took a knee to his side Tuesday from Washington’s Tre Johnson while chasing a loose ball.

Wednesday was another positive day at Yankees camp. For the first time since March 6, 2025 — an outing in which he knew “something wasn’t right,” which began a weeks-long saga that ended on the operating table for Tommy John surgery — Gerrit Cole was back on a mound and facing hitters in game action.
