Los Angeles Lakers: Luke Walton wants Brandon Ingram to play angry

The Los Angeles Lakers are hoping second-year small forward takes a big leap this season. After struggling throughout most of his rookie season, Ingram has looked better thus far in his sophomore campaign.

Ingram has shown a more polished offensive game. Last season, he scored in double-figures 36 times, breaking the 20-point plateau only twice. In six games this season, he already has scored in double-figures four times, breaking the 20-point plateau once already; his season high is 25 points against the Phoenix Suns.

While the shooting percentage and scoring is up, Ingram still has some improvements to make; consistency is near the top of that list as Ingram has alternated bad and good shooting games.
