The Upside Podcast examines NEHF and NPS alum Obi Toppin
Obi Toppin played in both the 2016 Northeast Hoops Festival and National Prep Showcase.
In April of 2016, he was an unsigned senior without a division I offer to his name. Seven months later, he had offers from Siena and SEMO, but nothing else.
Three years later, and he's now arguably the best player in college basketball, a projected lottery pick in June's NBA Draft, and has Dayton on the verge of a #1 seed in the NCAA tournament.
How did that come to be? Mount Zion Prep head coach Rodrick Harrison and New York Jayhawks executive director Jay David joined the Upside Podcast to trace the roots of one of the most notable late-bloomers college basketball has seen in recent years.
