Brandon Ingram will almost undoubtedly be a top-two pick in the 2016 NBA Draft. The only question is if he'll end up with the Philadelphia 76ers or the Los Angeles Lakers.
The former Duke player spent some time with the Lakers this week, having a dinner with the Lakers' staff as well as a private workout with the team. According to Lakers Nation's Serena Williams, Ingram was happy with how both went:
Brandon Ingram said his private Lakers workout “went great,” wanted to show his physicality, ability to finish thru plays & mid range game

In addition to giving his stamp of approval on the dinner and workout, Ingram spoke highly of how comfortable the Lakers organization made him feel, as corroborated by Lakers reporter Mike Trudell:
Ingram on what’s stood out in L.A. – “The comfortability. Everyone around here is great people.” Said it feels like a family organization.
