NBA Rumors: Brandon Ingram could return to the Lakers

There is always room for big surprises in the NBA market, and one of them could happen this summer with the return of Brandon Ingram to the Los Angeles Lakers. The talented but erratic player is on the verge of leaving the Pelicans, who are exploring ways to part ways with him and get something significant in return, according to NBA rumors.

Brandon Ingram was one of the great promises of the league, a player who was compared to Durant and seemed destined for glory to become a superstar. However, his progression has not been as expected. At 26 years old, he seems stuck, unable to translate his scoring ability into leadership, defensive power, or champion intangibles. So much so that the New Orleans Pelicans are looking to move on from him and find another player more compatible with Zion.

The priority would be to acquire a young point guard with great potential and without a huge salary yet, in order to invest in reinforcing other areas of the squad. Therefore, the NBA rumors point to a three-way trade involving the Portland Trail Blazers as well. The Blazers would receive D´Angelo Russell and send Anfernee Simmons to New Orleans, thus making it possible for Brandon Ingram to land with the Los Angeles Lakers. It would be a fitting scenario for all three teams.
