Lakers' Brandon Ingram: Leads team with 21 in loss

Ingram posted 21 points (8-14 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-8 FT), five rebounds, three assists and two steals over 40 minutes in Tuesday's 133-109 loss to the Clippers.

Analysis:

Even though Coach Luke Walton replaced most of this lineup with reserves in the second half, Ingram stayed on the court for most of the game. Like most of the team, Ingram can be very inconsistent and hasn't excelled in his starting role. He's yet to see a double-double this season, though he certainly has the innate talent to put up those numbers. It's unwise to expect the kind of stat line he had Tuesday, as it marks only the second time he's scored more than 20 points this season. Ingram, like most of the team, is a risky proposition in most formats.
