We’ve talked about this before, but if the New Orleans Pelicans star tandem of Brandon Ingram and Zion Williamson are a modern-day Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O’Neal, Ingram is Bryant, and Williamson is O’Neal. Both Williamson and O’Neal are physical anomalies that are capable of generating pressure at the rim like few players in NBA history have ever been able to achieve before.
And like Bryant, Ingram is a tough shot-making specialist. Hand in his face, no hand in his face, it doesn’t matter for Bryant and Ingram. As long as they are in their spots, they have a chance of making you pay.
