5. Will Brandon Ingram figure out the NBA game?
"Forget LeBron James, Rondo, Lonzo Ball and the others. They are vital but Brandon Ingram has to know that he is the key ingredient to the Lakers success. Disagree if you want, but you will see about 30 games into the regular season. Ingram has the highest upside and he has the talent to get his own shot. Figuring out the game is not about talent, it’s about the neck up. Brandon Ingram has to be ready to build on taking his place as the second option. LeBron James is now, but Ingram is the future, at least until the next big time free agent shows up."
Aftermath…
The Los Angeles Lakers have found the future! His name is Brandon Ingram. This dude is so smooth. The Lakers need to get out and run JUST because of him.
Look, he is going to need to keep developing his body going forward. Not because he doesn’t have game but for the fact that he does. After a while, he is going to be a star and teams are going to start to get physical with him. Ingram had 16 points, four rebounds and three steals.
His understanding of the game is outstanding and he is the player with the exception of Rondo who is, in my opinion, a guaranteed player that can actually make things easier for LeBron James.
Folks Brandon Ingram is for real and he will get better…trust me!
