After being limited to just 45 games in 2022-23, Ingram played a total of 64 regular-season games in 2023-24. He missed about three weeks of action beginning in late March but was cleared for the playoffs. However, he averaged only 14.3 points on 34.5 percent shooting as the Pelicans were swept by the Thunder in the first round. Aside from the rough time in the postseason, Ingram had a solid campaign averaging at least 20.5 points, 5.0 rebounds and 5.0 assists for a third consecutive year. He also shot an average of 49.2 percent from the field, marking the second-best rate of his career. Additionally, he hit 35.5 from deep and made 1.3 three-pointers per game but shot 80.1 percent from the foul line, his lowest mark in the last five seasons. His play exhibited quite a bit of variance throughout the season, including 18 games scoring fewer than 15 points and 10 games with at least 30 points. He hit the 40-point mark twice, with a season-high 41 points on 16-for-21 shooting to go with six rebounds, nine assists and a block in a home win over the Raptors in early February. Despite being linked in trade talks throughout the offseason, Ingram is heading into his sixth season with the Pelicans and the final year of his current contract. No matter where he plays out the season, he has all the tools to remain one of the league's best scorers and playmakers on the wing.
