Toppin’s athleticism may speak for itself, but because he’s only been in the spotlight for a short time, we don’t know much about his personal life. We do know, though, that he is in a relationship with Magdalena Bellinger. Magdalena is a former member of the George Mason Patriots women’s basketball team, so we’re sure these two can put on a show.
