NEW YORK — Obi Toppin basically defended his dunk title.
A rash of transition opportunities and the Pacers’ lazy defense allowed Toppin to convert four breakaway dunks in a span of about seven minutes of the second half, including his trademark under-the-legs jam that had the crowd — and his teammates — in awe.
Toppin, the 2021 Slam Dunk Champion, also converted four 3-pointers and finished with a game-high 24 points in the Knicks’ 131-114 preseason victory over Indiana.
