Once again, the Los Angeles Lakers were without a significant portion of the rotation and it showed. Brandon Ingram did all he could to carry the team — setting a new career high with 36 points in the process — but as the Philadelphia 76ers were at full strength, L.A. simply didn’t have enough firepower to outlast them, finishing with a 121-105 win.
Ingram’s performance should be noted, though. Despite all the noise over the last couple days about Anthony Davis and whoever might be on the trade block, Ingram went out and played one of the most complete and efficient games of his career.
