Wed Apr 119:52Obi Toppin Good to Go Against Chicago
Indiana Pacers forward Obi Toppin (foot) is available for Wednesday's game against Chicago after entering with a probable tag, giving Indiana another usable frontcourt body amid multiple injuries. He has averaged 13.2 points, 3.8 rebounds, 3.4 assists, and 1.6 three-pointers in 18.7 minutes over his last five games with a 26.9 usage rate, making him a viable deep-league streamer while the roster is thin. His minutes floor looks safer with Andrew Nembhard (back) and Aaron Nesmith (neck) sidelined, while Pascal Siakam and Jay Huff should continue seeing stable workloads alongside him in expanded rotations.

Fri Mar 2718:46Obi Toppin is Cleared for Friday's Game
Indiana Pacers forward Obi Toppin (back) has been upgraded to available ahead of Friday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Toppin will shed the questionable tag and suit up despite dealing with back pain. This minor injury shouldn't impact his ability to play his regular role in the rotation. This season, Toppin is averaging 9.4 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 2.1 assists in 17.0 minutes per game. The 27-year-old is a solid contributor, but his overall upside is limited, with him only playing minutes in the teens. Toppin remains a deep league fantasy option, but doesn't offer a ton of upside outside of that.

Thu Mar 1218:41Obi Toppin a Late Scratch Thursday
Indiana Pacers forward Obi Toppin (foot) will miss Thursday's encounter with the Phoenix Suns. Toppin wasn't on the initial injury report before the team decided to rule him out for the contest with an hour and a half before tip-off. He has made six appearances since recovering from a fractured foot and started in Pascal Siakam's (knee) place on Tuesday against Sacramento. With both Siakam and Toppin out, Kobe Brown could move into the first unit, which would give him more fantasy value.

However, Toppin has seen only limited minutes since returning from a fractured foot. He has logged 19 total minutes in his first two games back from injury. Toppin's minutes will likely remain around the same on Wednesday night, meaning he doesn't have anything to offer fantasy managers at present.

Thu Feb 2617:50Obi Toppin Cleared to Play Thursday
Indiana Pacers forward Obi Toppin (foot) will suit up on Thursday versus Charlotte. He had played in only three games this season before suffering a stress fracture in his right foot. Prior to the injury, the 2020 No. 8 overall pick appeared to be well on his way to having the best year of his career, averaging 14.0 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 1.0 steals. With that said, Toppin will be on a minutes restriction for the remainder of the season, likely making him irrelevant for fantasy purposes.

Wed Feb 1807:44Obi Toppin Making Progress But Not Close to Returning
Indiana Pacers forward Obi Toppin (foot) will remain out on Thursday against the Washington Wizards, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

Toppin enjoyed a strong start to the campaign before landing on the shelf. He averaged 14.0 points and 6.7 rebounds across the first three games. As long as he's out, Jarace Walker and Micah Potter will benefit from extra minutes in the frontcourt.

Indiana Pacers power forward Obi Toppin (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's matchup against Milwaukee. He's been out for a pair of games with a left ankle sprain, and the team considers him day-to-day.

Fri Dec 27 202418:22Obi Toppin Misses Friday's Game
Indiana Pacers power forward Obi Toppin (ankle) will not play against Boston on Friday. Toppin injured his left ankle in Thursday's 120-114 loss to Oklahoma City and will miss at least one game because of the injury. Jarace Walker should fill his minutes off the bench. From a fantasy perspective, Walker can be a bit of a hit-and-miss, but he made a positive impact on Thursday. The 21-year-old recorded 12 points, five rebounds, and one block in 15 minutes. Boston allows the ninth-most bench points in the league, so we could see a similar effort from Walker on Friday.

Wed Nov 13 202408:20Obi Toppin Questionable For Wednesday Night
Indiana Pacers power forward Obi Toppin (ankle) is in danger of missing a second consecutive game on Wednesday against Orlando. He has been listed as questionable for the contest with a left ankle sprain. Jarace Walker saw extended minutes on Sunday versus the Knicks and will likely play a bigger role again on Wednesday night if Toppin remains unavailable. Walker was a headache for the Magic last week when he produced 17 points, but he's managed a total of 11 points across two games since then, making him an unreliable fantasy piece.

Sun Nov 10 202416:28Obi Toppin Unavailable On Sunday
Indiana Pacers forward Obi Toppin (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the New York Knicks. Yikes, the injury list continues to grow for the Pacers early in the season. Toppin will join the group of inactive players due to a left ankle sprain. Jarace Walker figures to see additional playing time off the bench with the Pacers limited on options. Pascal Siakam and Myles Turner should play heavy minutes with the Pacers shorthanded on depth. Walker isn't a great fantasy option, but could be worth a look while Toppin is out.

Thu Jan 18 202421:01Obi Toppin Available On Thursday
Indiana Pacers forward Obi Toppin (calf) is available ahead of Thursday's game against the Sacramento Kings. The 25-year-old was questionable coming into this game after missing practice on Wednesday. Despite that, Toppin will play on Thursday and could have an increased role with Aaron Nesmith (shin) ruled out. It's worth noting that Toppin will still have to compete with Jalen Smith for playing time. Toppin should still be able to carve out decent value, but those days might be numbered with Pascal Siakam in town now.

The 25-year-old is enjoying a decent debut campaign in Indianapolis, averaging 11.6 points with 4.0 rebounds. With Pascal Siakam not yet available for the team, Jalen Smith will likely be in for a very busy night, and Jarace Walker could have a role to play, especially if Aaron Nesmith (shin) can't return to the lineup.
