The new dynamic duo of the Los Angeles Lakers consists of two very young and very different players. Brandon Ingram and Lonzo Ball have been handed the keys to the franchise with training camp getting underway at the team's new practice facility on Tuesday.

Ball got the Lakers avid fan base buzzing after an incredible run to a Summer League championship back in July. Lonzo's remarkable passing ability was put on display that has carried over to training camp with Ingram already signing his teammates' praises.

“It's natural as a point guard, for him anyway, to see where guys want passes where guys make shots at,” Ingram said of Ball. “I think it is very natural for Lonzo to figure that out.”

“The way he passes the ball I think it makes our guys want to run and play fast. Once we learn how to defensive rebound we'll have a lot of fastbreaks.”
