The New York Knicks have re-signed forward Jacob Toppin to a two-way contract for the upcoming 2024-25 NBA season, solidifying his position on the roster alongside his brother Obi Toppin, who recently signed a $58 million deal with the Indiana Pacers. Jacob Toppin, who went undrafted out of Kentucky, spent last season primarily with the G League's Westchester Knicks, averaging 17.8 points and 7.9 rebounds per game. He appeared in nine games for the Knicks, contributing minimally with an average of 1.4 points in just over four minutes per game. The Knicks have filled all three of their two-way contract slots, with Toppin joining Ariel Hukporti and Kevin McCullar. Toppin's performance in the G League included notable participation in the 2024 dunk contest, though he was eliminated before the finals. This contract extension follows the Knicks' strategic decision to retain Toppin as a restricted free agent, indicating their investment in his development.
