When we checked in with Brandon Ingram before the season started, it was pretty clear how motivated he was to become a great player. The amount of work that the 20-year-old has put in has also turned heads inside the Lakers building, and in conjunction with his talent and length, been cause for considerable optimism. In Los Angeles, most of us have only known Ingram for just 17 months, from the day he was selected No. 2 overall out of Duke.
