Lakers' Brandon Ingram attends Duke-Tennessee State game as a way to say thanks

DURHAM, N.C. >> The camouflaged attire normally would have allowed Lakers forward Brandon Ingram to hide in anonymity. But not when Ingram blended his presence amid a sea of Blue Devil blue.

So cameras easily found Ingram as he watched Duke’s 65-55 victory over Tennessee State on Monday at Cameron Indoor Stadium. It did not help Ingram sat behind Blue Devils coach Mike Krzyzewski.

Once the arena scoreboard featured Ingram during a timeout in the first half, the sellout crowd provided a standing ovation as loud as when the Blue Devils made a shot.

“I heard the crowd cheering and didn’t know what was going on,” Duke sophomore guard Luke Kennard said, laughing.
