Toppin registered 21 points (7-12 FG, 7-11 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists over 18 minutes during Sunday's 133-121 loss to the Pistons.
A midseason foot surgery was an unfortunate setback for Toppin, and the Pacers exercised caution with his minutes after his return. He ended up making a total of 24 appearances, posting averages of 11.6 points, 4.4 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.5 three-pointers in 17.7 minutes per contest. This season was basically a wash for Indiana, but the team could be poised to bounce back in 2026-27, which would benefit several key contributors.

Rotowire
Toppin is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Heat due to lower-back soreness and right foot injury management.
Toppin was initially deemed questionable due to the back issue ahead of Friday's loss to the Clippers, though he was cleared to play for a fourth straight game.
