New Orleans Pelicans vs. Celtics: Player Grades for the small forwards

A. . Small Forward. New Orleans Pelicans. BRANDON INGRAM

Brandon Ingram showed why he often draws comparisons to Kevin Durant, putting the team on his back late in the game and icing it for the New Orleans Pelicans.

Ingram hit a 3-pointer to complete the comeback and tie the game with just over four minutes left in regulation.

He hit another one in overtime that essentially won the game before he put it away at the line.

Ingram finished with 33 points, six rebounds and three assists in 43 minutes, hitting all six of his free throws, including the ones that ended the game.

Ingram has proven himself to be an assassin on the offensive end but also played better defense against the Celtics.
