Brandon Ingram News, Rumors, Updates - New Orleans Pelicans

Leading scorer in home opener Ingram amassed 26 points (11-17 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and one steal across 32 minutes during Saturday's 96-87 victory over the Knicks.

Impact Ingram was able to make his first three-pointer of the season after missing all three of his attempts behind the arc Wednesday against the Grizzlies. Nine of his points came in the third quarter as he helped the Pelicans stave off the Knicks, who overcame their slow start in the first half to reduce their deficit to single digits. Ingram did commit five turnovers for the second straight game, and he'll have to take care of the ball better moving forward.

Impact Although Ingram wasn't particularly efficient from the floor Wednesday, he still finished third on the team in scoring while also making a mark through his rebounds and assists. While he may not be as big of a focal point in the Pelicans' offense this year now that Zion Williamson is healthy, Ingram proved Wednesday that he can still be a productive fantasy option.

Leads team in scoring Tuesday Ingram delivered 18 points (8-16 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and six assists across 24 minutes in Tuesday's 104-92 preseason win over the Magic.

Impact Ingram is ramping up following a busy summer in which he represented Team USA in the 2023 FIBA World Cup, and all signs point to him being ready to open the season as one of the Pelicans' go-to players on both ends of the court. Ingram is aiming to top what he did last season when he averaged 24.7 points, 5.8 assists and 5.5 rebounds per game while operating as the Pelicans' go-to player on offense, though it's worth noting he featured in only 45 games and most of that production came with Zion Williamson sidelined.

Struggles from field Thursday Ingram delivered 10 points (5-13 FG, 0-4 3Pt), five rebounds, three assists and four steals across 22 minutes in Thursday's 120-87 preseason loss to the Rockets.

Impact Ingram spent part of his summer playing with Team USA in the 2023 FIBA World Cup, and while he didn't have as much rest as other players, he seems ready to go for the upcoming season. The shooting struggles in this game shouldn't be a major issue for a player that's still finding his best form. To note, Ingram averaged a career-best 24.7 points per game while shooting 48.4 percent from the field during the 2022-23 season.
