« I have a lot of love for the city of New Orleans. For the fans. There is unfinished business here », blurted out Brandon Ingram two weeks ago, when the Pelicans were eliminated by the Thunder. Not sure if he will have the opportunity to finish the work in question…
According to Marc Steinhe is ” more inevitable than possible » that the Pelicans transfer their winger this summer. The American journalist suggests that a number of Eastern teams would be interested in his profile, including the Cavs, the Hawks, the Magic, but also the Sixers.
This rumor is rising as Brandon Ingram is supposed to start negotiations with the Pelicans to obtain a contract extension. The winger will enter his final year next year, with $36 million on the clock.
According to the Times-Picayune, the NOLA franchise is open to the idea of adding additional years to its lease, but not to the maximum amount. At the start of the season, there was talk of eligibility for a three-year contract extension for around $147 million.
Philly also targets Paul George
But the Pelicans were visibly cooled by the playoffs missed by their winger, whose state of health over time regularly raises questions. The interest from the Sixers seems consistent, with a view to forming a complementary trio with Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey.
The Paul George track was also mentioned, but the Pelicans winger (26 years old) is much younger than his Clippers counterpart (34 years old). We recall that the Sixers had the opportunity to draft Ingram in 2016. Ben Simmons was selected No. 1, while his main competitor headed to the Lakers.
