Kentucky Forward Jacob Toppin named to All-Dunkaroos Team
Jacob Toppin is receiving an honor this 90s kid could only dream of. The high-flying Kentucky forward has been named to the All-Dunkaroos Team.
If you’re asking yourself, “What’s a Dunkaroo?” Then you did not grow up craving the sugary dunk-able snack that was promoted during every Nickelodeon ad break. Even though the combo of graham crackers and icing went out of style at the turn of the Millennium, the snack is back and doling out praise this March for some of college basketball’s best.
The All-Dunkaroos Team will feature the five best dunkers in college basketball. Rolled out by a guy who knows a thing or two about dunks, former Michigan State Spartan Miles Bridges, Toppin is the inaugural member of the All-Dunkaroos Team.
Toppin’s Top Dunks of the Season
Toppin is not making this team because he’s Obi’s brother. He has plenty of effortless, powerful slams on his resume this season.
“There was no thought,” Toppin said. “I can dunk the ball very well. I can jump very high. Doing that 360 dunk was like doing a regular one-handed dunk for someone else.”
Toppin may be the best dunker on the Kentucky basketball team, but he’s not the biggest Dunkaroo fan. Prior to the start of the season, KSR’s hard-hitting investigative reporting uncovered that Lance Ware is the Kentucky Basketball King of Snacks. No one has better in-between meal libations than Ware, primarily because his room stays stacked with Dunkaroos.
