New Orleans sends its star forward to Toronto in exchange for two players and draft picks

The New Orleans Pelicans have traded Brandon Ingram to the Toronto Raptors for Bruce Brown, Kelly Olynyk, a first-round pick, and a second-round pick, per Shams Charania.

Ingram, sidelined since December with a left ankle injury, will become an unrestricted free agent this summer.

Despite injury concerns, Ingram has averaged over 20 points per game in six seasons, ranking third in franchise history with 23 PPG in New Orleans.

Brown and Olynyk, both dealing with recent injuries, add valuable depth and experience to the Pelicans’ lineup.
