Obi Toppin’s fiancée Magdalena Bellinger can’t hide her delight as she twins with their daughter after Pacers’ historic NBA Finals run
Indiana Pacers forward Obi Toppin's fiancée, Magdalena Bellinger, twinned with their daughter as the duo attended Game 6 at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse. The duo cheered on Toppin with placards featuring his face as the Pacers' historic NBA Finals run continued. Indiana beat the Knicks 125-108, securing its first NBA Finals appearance in 25 years.
The mother of two shared glimpses of her outing with her daughter on Instagram, as they twinned in similar denim jackets. Bellinger first posted her denim fit on her story, which she paired with an Obi Toppin T-shirt. Her daughter wore a similar fit as the two attended Game 6.
Bellinger also shared scenes from the arena at the end of the fourth quarter.
Pascal Siakam and Tyrese Haliburton combined for 52 points to lead the Pacers. Obi Toppin, a former Knicks player, had a key role, recording 18 points, six rebounds and three blocks in 25 minutes.
The Pacers will face the OKC Thunder in the NBA Finals as they look to win their first-ever title in franchise history. They won three ABA titles in the early 1970s.
Obi Toppin gets his payback against the Knicks with a strong performance during the entire series
Indiana Pacers forward Obi Toppin had a series to remember against his former team, as he helped eliminate them in the Eastern Conference finals. A New York native, Toppin was selected by the Knicks as the eighth pick in the 2020 NBA Draft and was seen as an understudy to Julius Randle.
Although a dream move at the time, Toppin was deemed surplus to requirements when entering his contract year in 2023 and shipped off to the Pacers for two future second-round picks.
This move, however, has come back to haunt the Knicks as the forward got his payback by putting up an impressive display this entire series.
He sealed Game 1 for the Pacers with a game-winning dunk at MSG and helped close the win in Game 4 with a dagger 3-pointer. The star had another strong performance in Game 6 as the Pacers eliminated the Knicks with a 17-point win.
