It is easy to forget that Ingram is still just 21 years old. He was drafted in 2016 when he was just 18, and many experts believe that the youngster is still adjusting to the demands of the NBA.

Despite that, Ingram has developed quickly and continues to show improvement as he embarks on his third season in the NBA.

Ingram can play at both shooting guard and small forward, and he averaged 9.4 points and 2.1 assists in his debut season. His second season in the NBA was widely considered his breakout year, as the youngster averaged an impressive 16.1 points per game and also nearly doubled his assist rate from the previous season.
His figures have suffered a slight drop this season, but this can be attributed to LeBron James' tendency to dominate the ball. Despite a reduction in stats though, Ingram is impressing once again, and due to his age, it looks likely that he will get even better over the next few seasons.
