Kevin Durant reportedly made a comment to Lakers Nation reporter Serena Winters Tuesday about how Brandon Ingram is “even farther along than he was at that age.” That’s super nice of Kevin to say, but no. Well, if you want to frame the comment as “Ingram is much farther along to being a poor man’s version of me than I was at age 19 to being a top 3 player in the world," then maybe. But from the eye test to statistical comparison - there really isn’t much of a comparison.
Durant absolutely dominated college basketball as a freshman.
