Ingram, 32, averaged 9.1 points and 2.5 rebounds per game this season, shooting a league-best 47.5 percent from three for the South Bay Lakers. He has averaged 10.2 points, 3.1 rebounds and 1.6 assists during his G League/D League career.
Per NBA.com, Ingram is the G League's all-time leader in three-pointers made with 713.
Ingram started his professional career in 2007 with the Utah Flash. He steadily improved his numbers in each of his first four seasons before averaging a career-high 13.0 points in 2010-11, his final year with the team. He has been with the Lakers the past six seasons.
At 34-46 and eliminated from postseason contention, Los Angeles has little to play for. That won't matter for Ingram.
After 384 games, he may finally get a shot to play in an NBA team.
