    Made his free throws too which was another welcoming sign from him.

    Looked great out there and performed to expectations. Let's see if he can repeat it against better wings in Tatum and Brown

    Ingram was awesome. Aggressive all night. Man among boys. He was timid last Summer League so it was nice to see the improvement.

    Phenomenal game from Ingram. Wow! He definitely looks like he's going to take it to the next level this year.

    He's ready to dominate these kids, that's for sure.

    He should be a game time decision IMO .

    See how it feels in warm ups. Dude almost hit the game winner.

    Guys we have a budding superstar on our hands. You can just feel it. And he's still 19! Imagine how good he'll be at 24?

    I really want to know exactly what Magic said to him in the middle of last season because those words threw a switch. Ingram has been a different player ever since.

    And Luke said BI was talking s*** in practice recently, and that's really good to hear.

    In live action (on tv), they look better. I thought the biggest knock was always how he loads the ball to the side of his face, but I didn't see that as much.

    really curious to see him match up against jaylen brown, who has also looked very good. can he easily get a step on brown as well? if so, it bodes well.

    His confidence level is literally light-years away from where he was last year. This is our superstar.

    What a year a difference makes even this early... Last night at the start of overtime, Ingram gathered his mates to encourage and offer advice. Johnson talked of wanting a leader? Kid showing "I've got your leader right here." through his actions. Took the last shot too for the potential game winner. No more backseat bulls**t, eh?
