It took Andre Ingram 10 years to finally live his dream. Having played approximately 10 seasons in the D/G-League and being one of the top three point shooters in the league, Ingram finally got his call to the big league. The Los Angeles Lakers signed the 32 year old for the remaining two games of the season to showcase his skills. In the game with the Houston Rockets last night, Ingram made his presence known as he scored 19 points, including going 4-5 behind the arc. The crowd certainly loved seeing the rookie drain multiple shots from downtown. Only the Lakers organization knows if they will bring Ingram back for a longer deal but, if he continues to sink three point shots, he will get another opportunity with a NBA franchise.
It was super inspiring watching him! Just goes to show you can accomplish anything if you work hard enough for it! Great post, hope to see more great performances by him!
