Ingram has spent his first two pro seasons building experience in the San Antonio Spurs organization. As a two-way player, he appeared in 12 NBA games and logged most of his work with the Austin Spurs, San Antonio’s G League affiliate. In 88 games for Austin, he averaged 14.3 points, 10.4 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 1.3 steals per game.
He also got a front-row seat to a deep postseason run, spending time with the Spurs during their trip to this year’s NBA Finals. That kind of opportunity is far from automatic for young players, and it gave Ingram a taste of the stage he wants to reach again.
Now he’s moving on from his hometown team and into a new situation in the Western Conference. Based on his first two seasons, the deal looks likely to be another two-way contract, though there’s also a chance he landed a standard deal and will be in the mix for a roster spot when training camp opens in a few weeks.
Ingram’s path to this point started with a strong 2023-2024 season in Chapel Hill, where he was one of the key pieces on North Carolina’s ACC regular-season championship team. He could have returned for another year, something Tar Heel fans wanted badly, but instead he chose to turn pro and eventually slid late in the second round of the draft.
Since then, he’s been trying to show an NBA team exactly what he can bring. His G League production has made that case loudly: scoring, playmaking, rebounding, and enough versatility to affect the game in a bunch of different ways.
He’s the kind of player who can fill in the gaps, create looks for teammates, and keep possessions alive on the glass. Just as important, he brings the sort of winning mentality and locker-room presence teams value.
San Antonio gave Ingram a solid launch point. Utah is the next chance to prove he belongs on an NBA roster for good.

UNC Camp Opens With A Stunning Belichick Era Shakeup
UNCs camp opened with an unexpected front-office jolt, as football general manager Michael Lombardi was placed on paid administrative leave effective immediately, according to a university announcement. The school said staff and athletes are not allowed to discuss the matter, and emphasized that the leave does not reflect on Lombardis merits, adding an unusual layer of silence around a program already under a national spotlight.
Lombardi arrived in Chapel Hill ahead of the 2025 season on a three-year deal and quickly became one of the central figures in Bill Belichicks college transition, bringing a long NFL background with him. His role had already made him a prominent voice in the Tar Heels rebuilding effort, so the timing of this move leaves a major question hanging over a staff that was supposed to be settling into its next phase.

Another Belichick Era Problem Just Hit UNC Before Opening Week
North Carolinas football reset under Bill Belichick was already carrying plenty of pressure before the opening week arrived, and the program has now been forced to deal with another distraction off the field. The Tar Heels are trying to stabilize a roster and build momentum after last seasons 4-8 finish, while also selling a new direction on the recruiting trail, where the 2027 class is sitting in the middle of the pack.
Mike Lombardis status adds another layer of uncertainty to a staff that was supposed to project order and urgency. The investigation is still ongoing, and with the season about to begin, UNC is left navigating both the optics and the practical questions of how this affects the structure around Belichick in the short term and beyond.
