CJ Ingram drops 16 points, leading his team to a win over Calvary Christian 

Four-star prospect CJ Ingram was one of the standout players at the Montverde Invitational Tournament on Friday. Ingram delivered 16 points and seven rebounds to help Montverde secure a 62-55 comeback victory against Calvary Christian Academy.

In an Instagram post from "Hoop City Films" on Saturday, fans got a look at Ingram's standout performance. The clip showed him throwing down dunks, weaving past defenders, linking up with teammates, and scoring bucket after bucket. Watch his highlights below:

Montverde Academy got off to a slow start and spent the entire game clawing their way back. They ended the first quarter trailing by 10 points after only managing to score six points. Though they outscored Calvary Christian in the remaining quarters of the game, they couldn't catch up with them until the fourth quarter.

Ingram hit a free throw to tie the game at 47-47 in the fourth, and for a few minutes, it felt like a back-and-forth battle after Calvary Christian regained the lead again. But in the final four minutes, Montverde took control, closing the game with an 11-4 run to secure the win.

CJ Ingram was instrumental to Montverde's comeback, as he scored nearly half of his total 16 points in the final minutes of the game. 6-foot-8 power forward Trent Sisley also contributed 13 points, while senior shooting guard Dante Allen added 12.
