Scores two points in NBA debut
Topic (illness) supplied two points (1-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt), one rebound and one assist across 12 minutes during Thursday's 110-93 loss to Milwaukee.
Análise
Topic played in one preseason contest this season before undergoing surgery in October to treat testicular cancer, so after playing in a pair of G League games earlier this week as part of his ramp-up process, it was a major success to see him back on the court Thursday in his NBA debut. The No. 12 overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, Topic is a talented young guard, but he faces a tough path to consistent minutes in a crowded Thunder backcourt.

Available to debut Thursday
Topic (illness) is available for Thursday's game against the Bucks, Brandon Rahbar of DailyThunder.com reports.
Análise
Topic played in one preseason contest this season before undergoing surgery to treat testicular cancer. He made his return to game action in the G League, logging 17 minutes off the bench Monday in the Oklahoma City Blue's 137-135 overtime win over the Sioux Falls Skyforce, finishing with seven points (3-5 FG, 1-2 3Pt), seven assists and one rebound. With the Thunder shorthanded for their final game before the All-Star break, Topic should make his NBA regular-season debut and could play a sizable role in the rotation.

Plays in G League game
Topic (illness) logged 17 minutes off the bench Monday in the G League Oklahoma City Blue's 137-135 overtime win over the Sioux Falls Skyforce, finishing with seven points (3-5 FG, 1-2 3Pt), seven assists and one rebound.
Análise
The 17-minute outing marked Topic's first appearance in a game since the preseason, when he played in one game before undergoing surgery in early October to treat testicular cancer. The 20-year-old made a swift recovery following chemotherapy and had been ramping up his activity over the last few weeks before he was cleared to resume practicing with the Blue over the weekend. Topic will likely need more time to regain full conditioning, but if all goes well in his subsequent G League appearances, he looks like he'll be ready to join the Thunder at some point shortly after the All-Star break. The No. 12 pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, Topic is still waiting to make his NBA debut after missing the entire 2024-25 season while recovering from an ACL tear.

Ramping up in G League
The Thunder assigned Topic (illness) to the G League's Oklahoma City Blue on Sunday.
Análise
Topic has been sidelined all season after undergoing testicular surgery in October and later being diagnosed with cancer, but he's made excellent progress in his recovery. Back on Dec. 31, his agent said in an interview with Andriana Rankovic of Sportal.blic.rs that the 20-year-old successfully completed chemotherapy, and Topic has seemingly responded well since ramping up his workouts over the ensuing weeks. Topic now appears poised to resume taking part in practices in the G League, and if all goes well, the young guard could be cleared to eventually play in games with the Blue and potentially the Thunder before the end of the season, per Clemente Almanza of USA Today. The No. 12 overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, Topic missed the entire 2024-25 season while recovering from a torn ACL, but he returned to action for the Salt Lake City and Las Vegas Summer Leagues and also appeared in one preseason game in October before his cancer diagnosis.
