Lakers News: Brandon Ingram Setting High Expectations For Himself

When the Los Angeles Lakers drafted Brandon Ingram with the second overall pick last year, they knew that it would take some time for the young forward to develop both physically and as a player.

After struggling a bit to begin his rookie season, Ingram showed a ton of improvement in the second half leaving Laker fans optimistic about what is to come.

He then scored 26 points in his lone Summer League game, and expectations for him going into his second season were suddenly through the roof as president of basketball operations Magic Johnson said he expects him to average 20 points per game.
