3 years agoNew York Knicks power forward Obi Toppin has exited the league's health and safety protocols, paving the way for a return to action. Toppin has missed each of New York's last five games, so a return as soon as Thursday against Washington may be optimistic. In his final outing before landing in the protocols, Toppin logged his first career double-double. While he has struggled mightily from deep (19.6%), the 23-year-old has managed to average 8.7 points across 15.9 minutes per contest in his second professional season. Barring widespread absences among the Knicks' starting five, Toppin's season-long fantasy ceiling remains capped, although he stands out as a strong DFS punt play on most slates when healthy.--Jesse Borek
