Andrew Nembhard, Aaron Nesmith, Jarace Walker, Obi Toppin and Myles Turner will start against the Cavaliers on Sunday.
Obi Toppin shot 9-of-18 from the field in Sunday’s win over the Nuggets, scoring 22 points with four rebounds, one assist and four three-pointers in 26 minutes.
Tyrese Haliburton, Andrew Nembhard, Aaron Nesmith, Obi Toppin and Myles Turner will start Sunday’s game against the Nuggets.
The Pacers are without Pascal Siakam, who will miss Sunday’s game with an elbow injury. Obi Toppin will fill the resulting void in the starting lineup and should be streamed wherever he’s available. That’s the lone change to Indiana’s starting five.
Obi Toppin provided a boost off the bench with 19 points (7-of-11 FGs), seven rebounds and five three-pointers against the Kings on Monday.
Toppin’s strong stretch continued on Monday, and this was his sixth-straight game scoring in double figures, which is his longest streak since he scored at least 10 points in nine consecutive games in December. Toppin has provided top-100 value in nine-cat leagues over the past week in just 19.8 minutes per game, which is an incredibly small sample size. Still, it shows just how effective he has been. It is quite the hot streak, but small volume success is hard to maintain, which makes it difficult to consider rostering Toppin in standard leagues.
