Obi toppin was drafted 8th overall by the NY knicks in the 2020 NBA draft. He was traded to pacers for 2nd round picks.

He now leads the league in 2p% (75%).

Was wondering what happened for him to not work out in the NBA as expected?

He wasn’t ever really anything more than a very good athlete. Playing at Dayton made him look like LeBron against the slightly lesser athletic competition, Knicks got fooled by that and drafted him way too high
