On Tuesday, Brandon Ingram hit a poster dunk on Philadephia 76ers bench player Corey Brewer. After the slam, Ingram taunted Brewer a bit too much.

There have been many rumors flying out on the interwebs that Brandon Ingram may no longer be a Los Angeles Laker.
Ever since Anthony Davis announced that he would like trade away from the New Orleans Pelicans, the league has known the Lakers would be putting a package together for him.
That package probably includes multiple first round picks, Lonzo Ball, Josh Hart, Kyle Kuzma, and Brandon Ingram. Its been made clear by the Lakers front office that they would like to make a trade him before the deadline.
Perhaps Ingram is a bit upset by the fact that his name is being thrown around in rumors. The Boston Celtics can't even trade for Davis because of Irving's rookie extension, and the Knicks aren't likely to pass up on their first-round pick unprotected.
For the Lakers, it's their opportunity to finally put a star next to LeBron James.
The Lakers have been playing without James for a month or so, and it put the pressure on the young players to lead the squad. Kyle Kuzma has been carrying the team with his scoring.
Ball has been leading the offense and Ingram has been doing so off the bench. It's worked, but they've still been playing .500 ball.
The Lakers could look very different moving forward, and for the better.
