I'm not clicking on that click bait. I'm guessing its a bunch of BS with a headline to get clicks. Congrats on falling for the click bait aggy.

$40 million is a stretch I think. He will make a ton of money, despite the general consensus around the NBA being that Ingram will be the #1 overall pick.

bullshite. It created a larger thirst and build-up. He wasn't offered a shoe deal till after LSU.

If he goes pro and doesn't perform, that would have cost him the 100 M shoe deal.

See how that works little girl

I realize that you're proud of having learned what click bait is, but this is from the NY Post.

i'd hold off on giving him any endorsements until he proved the artificial heart and soul transplant he's getting actually takes.

It's all about on the court performance and how you handle yourself off the court. He's 19 and should do fine. But again, it's up to him.

And if you read the article you would know it pertains to his potential shoe contract and not his league salary/signing bonus.



If you know how shoe contracts work, they also need to be signed

and if he goes number 1 he is getting more than 12 mil.

Even as a non LSU fan, I can recognize that Brandon Ingram over Ben Simmons is because Ingram is showing a game developing. Ingram has a great shot, well rounded and improving all through the year


Ben Simmons didn't really show any real progress, had some inconsistency issues and didn't elevate his team.

Did Ingram?

This wasn't a great Duke team. They are still Duke, but they had one of the worst conference finished since 2007. They were unranked at one point for the first time in Duke history.

I am not saying Ingram ins't a great prospect, but I woudl say Allen did more elevating.

Big Brother wants what is best for Little Brother and wishes Little Brother felt the same. Maybe after Little Brother pops his cherry, Little Brother will have the self confidence to get past the resentment stage of personal development.

Being forced to waste a year before NBA may have Cost Ben Simmons $40 Million But we have no way of quantifying how much exactly so we made up a big number to get hits
