The New Orleans Pelicans are facing a critical season marked by uncertainty surrounding forward Brandon Ingram, the last remnant of the Anthony Davis trade with the Los Angeles Lakers. Rumors regarding his potential departure have circulated throughout the offseason, fueled by his desire for a max contract extension that the Pelicans haven’t agreed to.
Ingram, entering the final year of his deal, must showcase his value despite health concerns and a rocky relationship with the franchise. Meanwhile, the Pelicans will also have to navigate contract discussions with Trey Murphy, intensifying the competition for long-term commitments within the team.
