New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram told reporters on Friday that he expects to make his debut for the 2026-27 NBA season "soon." The comment came during a media availability session reported by HoopsHype.
Ingram, a former All-Star and Most Improved Player award winner, has been sidelined to start the new campaign. His return would provide a significant boost to the Pelicans' offensive capabilities as they navigate the early portion of the schedule.
The 26-year-old averaged 22.6 points, 5.6 rebounds, and 5.2 assists per game in the previous season. No specific target date for his return was disclosed.
