Gets green light Toppin (ankle) is good to go for Friday's game versus the Warriors.

Impact Toppin was in danger of missing his first game of the season before getting the green light. He has averaged 7.0 points, 4.4 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 0.6 steals across 17.8 minutes over the previous five games. Barring any setbacks, look for him to take on his usual workload.

Good night on glass Toppin closed Monday's 108-103 loss to the Cavaliers with 10 points (4-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and one steal in 20 minutes off the bench.

Impact The performance was as close to a double-double as Toppin has come since he went off for 23 and 11 against the Suns on Jan. 26. The fourth-year forward has settled into a consistent but modest role in the Indiana frontcourt, and over 13 games since the All-Star break he's averaging 8.2 points, 4.1 boards, 1.4 assists and 0.8 threes over 18.5 minutes a contest.

Pops for 14 points Tuesday Toppin closed with 14 points (5-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and two rebounds over 17 minutes during Tuesday's 137-120 win over Dallas.

Impact Toppin scored double-digits for just the second time in the past seven games, although he added very little outside of the scoring column. Outside of a few productive stretches, Toppin has been on the outside looking in when it comes to standard league fantasy value. He is outside the top 150 for the season and given his current role, managers are likely to find more serviceable options on the waiver wire.

Fails to contribute Toppin finished Monday's 130-122 loss to the Raptors with four points (2-8 FG, 0-5 3Pt), three rebounds and two steals over 19 minutes.

Impact Toppin was inefficient and not overly incorporated despite Aaron Nesmith missing his second consecutive game due to a sprained ankle. Toppin has been one of the league's most efficient players from inside the arc on the season, but he still barely merits streaming credibility.
