ANAHEIM – The promising rookie looked calm as he sat by his locker before his preseason debut. Despite his unassuming personality, however, it turns out Brandon Ingram can act pretty well.
Underneath his calm exterior bore a man becoming anxious before and during the Lakers’ 103-84 victory in their preseason opener against the Sacramento Kings on Tuesday at Honda Center.
