The Knicks are picking up the fourth-year options on Obi Toppin and Immanuel Quickley, and the third-year option on Quentin Grimes, the team announced Wednesday.

Toppin is scheduled to make about $6.8 million for the 2023-24 season, per Spotrac, about a $1.5 million increase from his contract this season. The deadline to pick up club options is Oct. 31.

The New York native was selected with the No. 8 overall pick in the 2020 NBA Draft after being named the consensus National Player of the Year at Dayton.

Toppin played sparingly during his rookie season, averaging just 4.1 points per game while averaging 11 minutes in 62 games (zero starts). He stepped up his game last year, playing an average of 17.1 minutes per game over 72 contests (10 starts) and putting up 9.0 points, 3.7 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 0.5 blocks per game. The high-flyer also took home the 2022 NBA Slam Dunk Contest title.

Through just three games this year, Toppin is averaging 9.3 points, 3.7 rebounds, and 1.7 assists in 16 minutes of action. He has improved his field goal percentage to 57.1 percent and his three-point shooting to 33.3 percent.

Quickley, the No. 25 pick in the 2020 NBA Draft out of Kentucky, will make about $4.17 million for the 2023-24 season, an increase from his $2.3 million base salary this season. The combo guard averaged 11.4 points over 64 games (19.4 minutes per game) during his rookie season and followed that up by averaging 11.3 points in 78 games over an increased 23.1 minutes of action last season.

The Knicks selected Grimes with the No. 25 pick in the 2021 NBA Draft after he won AAC co-Player of the Year and helped lead Houston to the Final Four.

Grimes averaged 6.0 points on 38.1 percent three-point shooting in just 46 contests during his rookie year. He'll see a slight raise in his contract next season, going from $2.277 million to $2.385 million. Grimes has not played yet during the regular season due to a sore left foot.
