We finally got our first sighting of Los Angeles Lakers rookie Brandon Ingram matching up with his player comparison, Kevin Durant! On Tuesday, USA Basketball opened up their entire practice to the media, which included the scrimmages between Team USA and the USA Select Team.
Rotating between lineups, Ingram saw his fair share of time opposite Kevin Durant, joined by teammates D’Angelo Russell and Julius Randle. Watch as Durant bodies up Ingram any chance he gets.
Plus, if you haven’t checked out our interview with Durant talking about his impression of Ingram, head here. Durant says he can see a lot of himself in Ingram, but actually thinks the young rookie is farther along than he was at this stage.
