Obi Toppin- a player who’s slowly but surely grown in influence over the years. After rotting in the nether regions of Tom Thibodeau’s bench at the Knicks, he moved to the Pacers in order to rediscover himself. And rediscover himself he did- going from averaging 15.7 MPG in 2022-23 to 21.1 MPG in 2023-24.

Rick Carlisle loves him- and he gives Aaron Nesmith and Pascal Siakam some much-needed rest. He capitalises every opportunity he gets. There’s a reason he’s the 4th-best paid player at the Pacers this year. So without further ado, let’s take a deeper look into Toppin’s financial portfolio, including aspects like his contract, salary, net worth, and endorsements.

What is Obi Toppin’s current net worth in 2025?

Toppin’s in the prime of his career. At 27 years of age, he’s in the best moment of his life to maximise his value in the form of endorsements and investments. So when the Pacers came knocking, he answered. His endorsements and bonuses likely contribute additional income beyond his guaranteed NBA earnings. But all of them combined bring up his net worth to about $10–15 million, approximately.

Among 2020 draftees, Toppin ranks 7th in total earnings but shows strong growth potential. Yes, he might be behind the likes of Anthony Edwards and LaMelo Ball. But Toppin’s Pacers role and efficient play (101 dunks in 2023-24) add to unique branding opportunities as a highlight-reel forward.

What is Obi Toppin’s NBA contract and salary?

Let’s start off with his first- the rookie contract that earned him his first NBA dollar. In 2020, he signed a 4-year, $22,118,492 rookie contract with the Knicks, all of which was guaranteed. But then came moments of feeling lost. In that dreadful 2022-23 season, he only played 67 times throughout the season as a part of Thibs’ system. But he then moved to the Pacers- where he honoured the full 4 years, proceeding to sign a bumper contract in Indianapolis.

Obi Toppin signed a 4 year, $58,000,000 contract with the Indiana Pacers in 2024. For the first season, that contract gives him $12,975,000 as a guaranteed salary, which is just 9.23% of the team’s cap. Plus, he is eligible for $560,000 incentive for the 2024-25 season which is a part of the $2 million total incentive in his contract.

Considering that he played all 82 season games in his first season itself, it’s great value for money for the Pacers. The sum’s expected to increase by the year, getting him about $16 million by 2027-28. And also- there’s no team/player options, ensuring full earning potential through 2028.

Does Obi Toppin have any endorsements?

Toppin’s net worth is also influenced by endorsement deals, performance incentives (like LTBE bonuses), and personal brand growth. But the biggest, most proudest moment yet came when he signed a deal with the Jordan brand. Toppin described the partnership as “a blessing… to be part of the brand that the best player to ever live created,” so let’s see what this deal looks like.

Well, the deal includes signature sneaker collaborations, apparel lines featuring his #1 jersey, and performance bonuses for All-Star selections. While financial terms remain undisclosed, similar NBA role player deals average $500,000-$1 million annually. And knowing his trajectory, those All-Star bonuses will be kicking in in no time.

His increased visibility, improved performance, and marketability as a key Pacers player help attract sponsorships and off-court opportunities. Just know this about Obi Toppin– greatness will follow. And he’s a major cog in Rick Carlisle pocket rocket of a team.
