What Ever Happened to Andre Ingram?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 чер 2024
- Andre Ingram, the Los Angeles Lakers' rookie sensation and the NBA's #1 story in 2018, had an unbelievable debut game, scoring 19 points. We all know what happened - a man who toiled for 10 years in the NBA D-League / G-League to make it to the big show.
But it's been six (not five, sorry) years since then. Where did he go? Overseas? Coaching? Or... still trying to secure a full time contract in the NBA?
Really, what happened to Andre Ingram?

Let me know what you guys think of this one! First time doing something like this, let me know if there's anything to improve on!
And of course, huge shoutout to Mr. Andre Ingram for agreeing to this!
Fantastic video! Keep it up!
You did good. I was invested in this video and I’m glad to know more about Mr. Ingram. Keep it up my boy.
Please put the cell phone down and clean the room. Nice vid. Bad look.
amazing vid. no other content like this is being put out.

Andre should be an assistant coach for the Lakers, he’d be a good vet for the younger guys who are going in between the G-League and the NBA
I agree.
He should be a g league coach 😂
@@Gofroze even if it was just being a G-League coach, he should still be somewhere in somebody’s organization. That veteranship and experience is still valuable, especially considering this year’s rookie class having several play in the G-League.
I actually think he'd be great on the Heat or Sioux Falls coaching staff considering how successful their programme has been.
Casual take lmao
What a humble and nice dude. Although his time in the nba was short, he did accomplish his goal and he seems like he has no regrets.
He should have played overseas to make more money though, D-league/G-league didn't pay much. I guess getting to stay closer to home and still making some money though is a decent deal, when you consider some guys play their entire hoops career for free on pickup courts
@@stevenscummy1458that wasn’t his goal.
@@terranceford4391true but bro got payed doing something he loved and still reached the ultimate goal. How many people can say they played with Lebron. That’s a pretty dope life no matter how much you make out of it.
@@TROPxBIG2x no
wow a youtuber asked him better questions than any of the media did. no wonder espn doesn’t even bother with the half time show anymore
Because UA-camrs dont have to ask the same stock questions
U are like 12 years old right
Thank you for this. As a laker fan I’ll never forget watching his nba debut game live
Of course, thank you for watching 🙏🏿
Man I didn’t expect to cry watching this. This man is the Sisyphus of the NBA, grinding for so many years at a dream that seems so far away. Time and time again inching one step closer but 2 steps back. And yet this man continues to remain full of gratitude.
It’s inspiring and serves as a reminder that even though your dream might be coming to an end, life still goes on. There are plenty of other opportunities for Ingram after his playing time is over, and the same applies to each of our own lives.
Man I’m glad i seen this comment. This video brought me to tears too and i was here feeling like i was trippin for being so moved by his gratitude when so many would have probably considered themselves failures.
Them boys over here tripping off shrooms 😂😂😂😂
@@sturdyharris8320😂😂😂 dnt be so ignorant … the guy does have an inspiring story you might not be as moved as these guys but dnt do them like dat … you read their full stories in the comments 😂
@@tez215philly4 Penn town finest! These niggas crying typing they’re crying had me crying laughing 😂 like type that shit wipe your eyes and delete it. It’s a lot of niggas out there with a story like Don Cheadles
Kinda crazy he was so big 2k legit used his story for the mycareer the very same yr
Great how you got him for an interview, keep grinding and you will blow up for sure
Thanks, am trying !
his words made me think about my own situation right now. it's not just hitting the wall, I am IN that wall right now and wondering how to overcome it. for Ingram somehow to be grateful despite his circumstances, and all the passed opportunities, that takes a certain level of acceptance. made me wonder right now.
I met him at Kroger a few years ago with my dad and brother he’s a real good guy.
How many mean people you seen or met at krogers 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I’m convinced that any brother with the initials A.I. gets buckets. Bubba Chuck, Iggy, dude from NBA 2k19 and Mr. Ingram. Respect and I wish nothing but the best.
As a 30 year old man who just finished his college basketball career, Andre’s story has touched me since I first heard about it. PASSION and COMMITMENT and not settling for less is why Andre’s so successful even when others may see it differently. I know the NBA loves seeking youth and potential, but after what Joe Johnson did in his final NBA run and Udonis Haslem as well, we need more vets like Andre on the court!
wow gratitude goes a long way
He's an inspiration. He never gave up on his dream, that in it of it's self is a huge win. 38 is old IN basketball, but it's very young AROUND basketball. I hope to see him around. A definite fan favorite.
There’s one thing to have a dream but another to actually capitalize and accept offers to make real money for your family. If ex-NBA stars like Stephon Marbury can go play overseas, experience new cultures, meet new people and earn an excellent living then that tells you a lot. Ego and delusion got the best of Andre!
@@JCizzleSoCalDon Cheadle won that high school chip and thought he was the ticket 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Andre would make a legendary coach. His attitude drive and work ethic is something to look up to. Excited to see what the future holds for you Dre.
work ethic and drive doesnt make people good at things they have never done. players dont make good coaches. there are outliers but not many
liked immediately man I was thinking about him the other day, everything you put out is quality so I know this gonna be good
Appreciate the support ! 🙏🏿
fucking hell man, you are a very very good reporter. i am a writer and editor (not for sports) but i have worked with loads of people who get paid and work as professional reporters that could learn a lot from you about how to frame and present a story. you let the thing breathe, you let ingram speak for himself, yet you interject and give context precisely where it is needed, the whole thing flows, it is entertaining WITHOUT being dumbed down or losing its legitimacy and accuracy.... shit man, if you aren't trying to make it as a sports journalist, i'd encourage you to start. very impressive. you are the first sports youtuber that i have subscribed to. respect.
Why is your grammar so bad if you’re a writer?
@@OsceolaNola7how is it bad? it honestly seems fine lmao
Ever heard of the difference between formal and informal writing? @OsceolaNola7
Wow, that means a lot!!! Hoping to make my own lane with this really. Thanks for your sub and I hope that you stick around for the ride ✌🏿
reading a script doesnt make anyone a good reporter. shit on youtube isnt media reporting
Bro was the best 3pt shooter on the team that year!!
You’re the goat for getting this legend on
🫡
Bruh that's crazy, i was just wondering about this dude a week or two ago. Appreciate you doing this 👏🏾
Thank you for making these video. I was wondering for awhile what happened to him and few days later I see it on my page🤧
Clicked the video because I remember his story making me smile, left this shit with an incredible amount of wisdom on perspective, embracing oneself, and working hard. He's an inspirational dude, whether he's coaching professionally or just guiding local players he's gonna impact the game and thats all u can ask for as a player, giving back to the game u love.
Great video and thank you. He was the best part of that Lakers season
Yo this is my new favorite channel! I totally forgot about Andre Ingram
Another great video. Andre's a geniunly nice man. I hope he's happy. And thank you for your efforts. You're clearly made for this.
Of course! thank you for your support!
Thanks for this interview
insanely high quality and really compelling my man, keep it up
Popped up for recommended and you killed this bro! Keep it up will be checking you out. Shout out to both of y’all
Love this. Thanks for bringing it to us.
Great video. I'm relatively a newbie to NBA (7-10 years) and remember this story clearly. Can't believe it was 5 years ago.
man your videos are getting so much better , here before 100k :D
Good stuff man.
Literally was thinking bout his first game in the NBA 2 days ago.....I had forgotten who it was against, but I will always remember the bench going crazy as he was knocking down shots.
Thank you so much for doing this! Always wonder what he’s up to!
Thank you so much for this man. His words really hit me hard, I turn 27 on Friday and while I have done a lot it's been 5 years since I graduated college and I just am not where I know I can be. I know the journey isn't always linear but I just hope that if I stay the course that I will end up where I know I can be.
That’s what I hoped for in sharing this story. Thank you for sharing this 🙏🏿
How is this channel not pushing a million subs by now? Easily some of the best NBA content on UA-cam
This was an amazing video.
Thank you for making this for us.
Of course, thank you for tuning in 🙏🏿
Never forget to be grateful and to give thanks. Great interview and story.
Man this is so deep I needed this.! I been doing music since I was 18 and I’m 37 I just can’t stop. I tried stopping for a couple years but nothing felt right. I started vlogging, did photography, became a published author, videography, even an acting class. Nothing could fill that void of my passion to create music. Luckily everything I tried out came full circle as I’m able to make my own music videos and they are really good, acting has helped me become a better artist.
One thing I never did in my career though is actually make a plan and stay consistent, I tend to give up when times get tough
thank you for uploading
Of course 🙏🏿 thank you for watching
Another amazing video, man; I always love the topics you choose to cover
Glad you enjoy them !
Great vid/interview, bro ! 💯
Great video! You have a lot of talent! Initially I was going to watch until knowing what he was doing but your talent in story telling kept me engaged!
Wasn’t going to click the vid but channel looked interesting and I’ve been finding some cool smaller channels. Glad I clicked - enjoyed the video
Was just thinking about this guy not to long ago… great video
This was a really great video appreciate the momments
Great job! Good luck on UA-cam!
Great video bro.
Great content, I subscribed half way thru
If this guy got an assistant coach role on the NBA, no player for that team should ever be allowed to be late or take for granted their spot in the NBA. A guy like Klay Thompson this year, struggling and questioning his abilities, would have benefited greatly if he could look down the bench and see a guy who grinded for a decade in the D/G League for less than five games in the NBA. Puts the whole sport in perspective. Andre Ingram is an inspiration and if I was a HC or GM, I’d be jumping at the opportunity to get him apart of my staff.
you snapped with this one bro!
This is great content thank you
Great interview! Glad Andre still in a great state of mind🙏🏽
This needs more views bro
Fantastic work. You make some of the best basketball-related content on UA-cam. Keep doing your thing!
Thank you !! Will do 🫡
This is dope. Great video
lakers fan here, i think every person who reps purple & gold hods admiration for andre. underrated channel btw great video
What a great video man hope this blows up. Andre Ingram is such an inspiration to people seeing that if they work hard enough you’ll get recognized even if it’s later better than never.
2 call ups in 13 years?? “Just work hard bro” he missed out on thousands chasing a dead dream.
@@Deadboyzion what guarantees he would’ve made it to the nba if he went overseas, you never know. In the end now he played for one of the most iconic franchises in the nba, his story blew up, people love him, he’s the head of the union of the g league players, has many opportunities for his career and everyone knows him. Maybe if he went overseas chasing the quick money this would’ve never happened or maybe it would’ve who knows but at the end everything worked out
@@emilewillaerts6368Id rather have a million plus in career earnings over playing for an NBA team for a few games. I like Ingram, but he clearly doesn't understand opportunity cost.
@@sp123 he would’ve never had “millions” in career earnings overseas. He would’ve probably gained more money but not that much more. As well as he wouldn’t have been known to people and wouldn’t have gotten the opportunities he has now to make more money. I also don’t know why you’re hating on him when he himself recognizes that he should’ve probably taken the first overseas offer.
Great video bro! Subbed. Keep interviewing and telling untold NBA stories worth sharing!
On it !! Thanks for subbing 🙏🏿
Andre I believe and pray that the best days of your basketball career whatever it may entail is still ahead of you. Gratitude is perhaps the most powerful trait a single person can exhibit because it really does come back to you. Andre always struck me as the nicest person on the planet. Big things are still ahead of you big brother! You're an inspiration. And thankful for this channel for this content.
really appreciate this video
He played in the NBA with the goat. He made it! He may not got to have it for a great length but he did it!
Oh cool he got very momentarily to be in the huddle and share a locker room the with Lebron. That was really the highlight of his long “professional” career. His D-League/G-League sportsmanship and 3 point contest awards were nice too but dude was probably averaging $30-40K per year with a wife and kids. He turned down a lot and got little in return
@@JCizzleSoCal he chose it, did you not watch the interview?
good storytelling man loved this
great video!! super well put together!!! damn andre is very based
This was dope, man. Much respect to Andre Ingram and @kipkame for this inspiring content

He finally made it to the Big Leagues.
Had the chance to play against Andre in Virginia back in 2002/03 HIGH SCHOOL season. He was a sharpshooter back then and great to see him appreciated with this video!
Who you played for?

Very well done bro. Always wondered what happened to him. I’m a basketball junkie, so I’ve watched more G league games than I’d like to admit. Good for him and glad he is still going.
I remember watching his debut. So inspiring.
well done video, i cant even lie
Thanks for the video, is very interesting
Glad you liked it!

A pure genuine soul who will never give up on himself. I salute you Andre!
