More on this storyline

Ingram, the No. 2 overall pick of the Los Angeles Lakers in the 2016 draft, was previously represented by Excel Sports Management. -via ESPN / December 1, 2024

Multiple league sources have relayed to me that the Pelicans and Jazz were deep in talks which were shut down by Ingram's lack of desire to re-sign in Salt Lake City. This is important info, because it highlights that money is not presumably everything for Ingram. I do think it was in his best interests to just take the money, however. The cap landscape for next summer is a harsh one. Only the Brooklyn Nets project to have signficiant cap space, which will undoubtedly limit the number of Ingram suitors at the dollar figure he is seeking. -via In the NO / December 1, 2024

First thing is first, it has been communicated to me by various league sources that the expectation is for Brandon Ingram to sign with Klutch Sports after his 15 day waiting period is over. Zion Williamson, who also left CAA recently, is not expected to follow in Ingram's footsteps and go to Klutch. -via In the NO / December 1, 2024
