The Los Angeles Lakers might have one of the best young stars in the league in Brandon Ingram. Let’s check in on his development so far this season.

The Los Angeles Lakers have a few different young players on the roster that have solid potential. Brandon Ingram, in particular, has made some giant leaps in his game this season.

It is no secret that Ingram was one of the key reasons LeBron James decided to join the Lakers. The upside that this young star has shown is truly special and it was enough to get James’ attention.

Of course, with the signing of James comes a great deal of pressure. Ingram’s development now has to be fast-tracked as the Lakers rapidly attempt to build a championship contending team. There isn’t much room for failure anymore for him.

Between the heavy criticism and constant trade rumors, Ingram has managed to hit his stride this season — so much so that people are now considering him one of the brightest stars in the league. Let’s break down how Ingram has progressed this season and predict what we can see from him in the future.
