Lakers News: Brandon Ingram Believes Added Strength Helping Him On Defensive End

Los Angeles Lakers forward Brandon Ingram’s main focus this past offseason was adding strength, as the 20-year-old still has a long way to go to add to his long but skinny frame.

Ingram came into training camp noticeably bigger, in addition to improving his jump shot and other aspects of his game.

The Lakers made their preseason debut on Saturday night, losing to the Minnesota Timberwolves 108-99, but Lakers fans got their first look at the new and improved Ingram.

Although he struggled with his shot, Ingram looked to be much improved on the defensive end and at Monday’s shootaround he attributed that to the strength he added this summer.
