Brandon Xavier Ingram (born September 2, 1997) is an American professional basketball player for the Los Angeles Lakers of the National Basketball Association (NBA). Ingram had a successful high school basketball career at Kinston in North Carolina, where he won state titles each of his four years of high school and was named North Carolina's Mr. Basketball. He attended Duke University for one season of college basketball and earned second-team all-conference honors in the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) as a freshman. After the season, Ingram decided to forego his remaining college eligibility and declared for the 2016 NBA draft, where he was selected second overall by the Lakers.

Early life

Ingram was born on September 2, 1997, in Kinston, North Carolina. He is the son of Donald and Joann Ingram. He has two half-siblings, an older brother, Donovan, and an older sister, Brittany.[1] He shares a father with Donovan and a mother with Brittany.[1] Ingram's father started his career as a police officer and a manager of a local gym, but he is now full-time at a welding plant, where he makes fork lifts.[1][2] Before that, Donald was a would-be hoops star, pushing his way through the semi-pro leagues.[2] When he moved back home to Kinston, his father started playing pickup games with a young Jerry Stackhouse, who was looking to play locally against older and more experienced players to help him elevate his game.[2] Stackhouse, an ex-NBA star and Kinston native, forged a friendship with Ingram's father on the basketball court.

While Ingram grew up in a one-story house on Highland Avenue in Kinston, his brother Donovan grew up in a different house but would spend weekends with Brandon, teaching him basketball.[1] Kinston had an extremely high crime rate, but Ingram kept his focus on basketball.[3] Before Ingram was a teenager, his brother allowed him to play with him and his older friends. He described this experience as "the best thing that ever happened to my game". His brother, known as Bo,[4] went on to play college basketball for South Plains College (2008–2010) and UT Arlington (2010–2012).[5] By the time Brandon reached eighth grade, Stackhouse became Ingram's Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) coach and mentored the young basketball player.[6] Those influences "took me to the next level", said Ingram, whose foundation as a player came from his father.[7] His father was a high school and collegiate referee who stated Brandon "was trained correctly, both mentally and physically. He grew up knowing the rules of the game".[7] Ingram played all four years of his high school basketball career at Kinston High School and helped lead Kinston to four straight state championships during his time there.[8]

High school career

During his freshmen year at Kinston, he came off the bench on the varsity basketball team but along the way his role grew.[9] In his first year with the Kinston Vikings, the team defeated Cuthbertson High School by three points to win the 2012 NCHSAA 2-A boys basketball state championship in Reynolds Coliseum.[10] As a sophomore, Kinston defeated Cuthbertson for the second year in a row to win the state title and Ingram averaged 12.4 points per game (ppg), 3.9 rebounds per game (rpg) and 1.5 assists per game (apg).[11] Prior to the start of Ingram's junior year, he began to show improvement during the 2013 summer while playing AAU basketball.[12] After shining for the Stackhouse Elite team, the 6-foot-7 junior entered the year with high expectations and received a large amount of attention from college coaches who were lined up to recruit Ingram to a Division I school.[13]

Ingram in the 2015 McDonald's All-American Game

Ingram led the Kinston Vikings to a its third consecutive state title where he scored 28 points to go along with his 16 rebounds against North Rowan.[14] During the season, the Vikings went undefeated in their conference with a 26-4 overall record while Ingram was averaging 19.5 points, 9.1 rebounds, 2.5 blocks and 1.5 assists per game and was named Eastern Regional Most Valuable Player (MVP).[5][15] During the spring 2014, Ingram represented the Stackhouse Elite for the Norman Parker Showcase at the Suwanee Sports Academy where earned MVP honors after leading the team to the championship.[16] He averaged 17.9 points per game and 5.3 rebounds each contest and shot better than 81 percent from the free throw line during the Adidas Uprising circuit.[17][18] After his junior year came to an end, Ingram participated in the NBPA Top 100 Camp on June 19, 2014 at John Paul Jones Arena in Virginia.[19] Later that summer, instead of playing for an AAU tournament in the Atlanta area, he decided to compete with his high school team at the annual East Coast Invitational (ECI), an off-season event in his home state.[20][21]

As a senior, he averaged 24.3 points and 10.4 rebounds per game and led the Vikings to a 26–4 record.[22] At the Spalding Hoophall Classic, Kinston pulled off a fourth-quarter comeback defeating Trenton Catholic Academy (56-54) behind Ingram's 22 points.[23] In his final high school basketball game, he was named MVP of the state championship game after scoring 28 points to go with 10 rebounds and 5 blocks in a win over East Lincoln High School at the Dean E. Smith Center.[5] This made Ingram the first men's basketball player to win 4 consecutive North Carolina High School Athletic Association (NHSAA) championships in history.[5] The Vikings also became the first Class 2A school in North Carolina history to win four consecutive state titles.[9] Following his senior season, Ingram was a participant in the 2015 McDonald's All-American Game, where he scored 15 points and had five rebounds.[24]

Ingram was rated as a five-star recruit and was considered among the best players in his class.[25][26][27][28][29] He was regarded as the No. 3 overall recruit in the 2015 high school class by ESPN and Scout, as well as No. 4 overall by Rivals.[30][31][32] He was named North Carolina's Mr. Basketball and Player of the Year by North Carolina Basketball Coaches Association (NCBCA).[22][33] He also made the Parade All-American team, in his senior season, joining Duke teammate Luke Kennard. In his senior year, he was also named to the North Carolina Basketball Coaches Association All-District First Team.[5] On April 27, 2015 he announced that he would attend and play for Duke University in the 2015-2016 season. Ingram said he "probably" would have committed to North Carolina in November if the Tar Heels were not involved in a "far-reaching academic scandal".[34]

Professional career

Los Angeles Lakers (2016–present)

On June 23, 2016, Ingram was selected by the Los Angeles Lakers with the second overall pick in the 2016 NBA draft.[64] Being 18 years old at the time, he was the second youngest player drafted in 2016.[65] On August 23, 2016, he signed his rookie scale contract with the Lakers.[66] He made his debut for the Lakers in their season opener on October 26, scoring nine points off the bench in a 120–114 win over the Houston Rockets.[67] On November 23, in his first career start, Ingram scored a career-high 16 points in a 149–106 loss to the Golden State Warriors.[68] He topped that mark on December 2, scoring 17 points in a 113–80 loss to the Toronto Raptors.[69] On December 17, he had nine points, 10 rebounds and nine assists, finishing just an assist and point shy of becoming the youngest player in NBA history to record a triple-double in Los Angeles' 119–108 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers.[70] On January 6, 2017, he had his second 17-point game of the season in a 127–100 win over the Miami Heat.[71] Two days later, he had another 17-point effort in a 111–95 win over the Orlando Magic.[72] During the NBA All-Star Weekend, he participated in the Rising Stars Challenge along with teammate D'Angelo Russell.[73] He hit the 20-point mark for the first time in his career on February 26, 2017, scoring 22 points in a 119–98 loss to the San Antonio Spurs.[74]

National team career

Ingram was selected to the 2016 USA Basketball national select team, which trained with the 2016 US Olympic Basketball Team.[75]

Player profile

Ingram during a closed practice of the 2015 McDonald's All-American Game

Standing 6 feet 9 inches tall (2.06 m) and weighing 190 pounds (86 kg), Ingram plays mostly at the small forward position.[76] His long arms, stretching to a 7-foot 3 inch wingspan and 9-foot 1 inch standing reach,[77] allows him get his shot off over defenders and block shots on the defensive end.[78] Ingram has drawn frequent comparisons to Kevin Durant, after whom he patterned his playing style revealing, "I try to take bits and pieces out of [Durant's] game and put it in my game [but] at the end of the day, he's Kevin Durant, and I'm Brandon Ingram".[79] Like Durant, the teenager has been criticized for his slim frame; however one Western Conference coach stated that Ingram is "just weak right now. He's not soft, by any stretch of the imagination."[80] After a Team USA practice, Durant told reporters that Ingram is "the first person that I could… look at him and feel like I’m looking in the mirror".[81] In his rookie year coach Luke Walton utilizes him as a point forward during a few games because "it helps engage him in the game."[82]

Off the court

Growing up, one of his favorite things to do as a kid was fishing with his grandmother at Atlantic Beach.[83] Ingram signed with Excel Sports Management and is represented by Excel founder and president Jeff Schwartz.[84] In 2016, he chose to sign an endorsement deal with Adidas Basketball and made an appearance in a commercial for Speed Stick along with Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Kris Dunn.[85][86] In early 2017, he teamed up with L.A. street artist Jonas Never for Delta’s "Beyond the Court" campaign, which will see Ingram and Laker teammate Jordan Clarkson explore their passions outside of basketball.[87] While Clarkson is an aspiring fashion designer, Ingram's passion for art began with him drawing basketball players and cartoon characters, which was bolstered by taking a portrait drawing class at Duke.[87]
