Lakers Offseason News: Brandon Ingram working with same trainer that helped Victor Oladipo become an NBA All-Star

In his efforts to make another leap during his third NBA season, Los Angeles Lakers forward Brandon Ingram is hitting the gym with Micah Lancaster, better known as the trainer who helped Victor Oladipo make his first NBA All-Star game this season.

Lancaster posted video of Ingram — who already made massive strides from his rookie season to his sophomore one — working out with him in a facility, promising “special things ahead” for the versatile wing (h/t Coach Pete Zayas of Laker Film Room):

Some special things ahead for @1ngram4 - and that’s an understatement #trainimpossible

But players work with personal trainers all the time, so some might ask what makes Lancaster so special other than what he did with Oladipo?
