What would it take to get Obi Toppen?

[tykendo]

This is the Power Forward who looks like a player right out of the gate. I've seem some mocks have him going to Chicago. Just a feeling about him as a talent.

Only if his middle name is Wan.

We'd need to trade a couple of Obi Bottompens to make it work

He's our only hope.

Not a fan of Toppin myself. I think bigs should show SOME defensive ability.

Happy to be proved wrong, though.

The Kings will be all over this....it's what they do

Then they’ll take Payton Pritchard with the first pick.

I imagine that with how competitive things will be in the West next season and how stacked the next draft is supposed to be, we could probably move way up with 16, 46 and our 2021 first unprotected, maybe that would be enough for Chicago or Cleveland. I also really like Toppin, I think his problems on defense are overstated (his defense has been bad but I think it could and will get a lot better). As far as the guy's offense goes, it's big time and he will play right away in the league... I think if he worked hard on defense that he would beat out Zach for our starting PF spot.

I am not high on him like most people are in here.

I like him. He has a cool name.

Run the pick and Toppin'!

He has rare explosiveness and athleticism for his size. He'd look great, and IMO be special, in a line up of Dame, CJ, Nurk, and Trevor, Melo, or whoever we sign or trade for to enhance that position.

One of my favorite prospects in this draft, but Onyeka is who we need.

If you want to move up you could call the spurs and tell them you will take the contract of DeMarre Carroll (absorb it into our TPE) and swap picks.

We do we need a C that cant play next to Nurk...?
