It’s not a secret, Brandon Ingram is on the way out of the New Orleans Pelicans. As the final year of his contract (at $36 million) approaches, the winger has failed to reach an agreement with his management regarding an extension.
This time, the Louisiana franchise does not want to give him a max deal. A position that can be understood after the mixed last season of the former Los Angeles Lakers player. For his part, Ingram understood that he was not going to receive what he wanted from the Pelicans.
And a departure therefore seems inevitable. According to the information by journalist Marc Steintalks are seriously intensifying for an Ingram trade. For the moment, the rumors mainly concern the Sacramento Kings.
Californians are looking for a “third star” to support De’Aaron Fox et Domantas Sabonis. But the Kings are exploring several options on the market. Sacramento is also known to be monitoring Lauri Markkanen et DeMar DeRozan.
In any case, Brandon Ingram certainly needs a fresh start to get back on track. And to sign the XXL contract he wants to get too… At the Pelicans, it’s time to turn the page.
Should the Pelicans break up the Zion-Ingram-McCollum trio?
