The Los Angeles Clippers are still waiting on their trade with the Toronto Raptors to go through once the NBA's investigation into the Clippers and Leonard for alleged salary cap circumvention is concluded, but at this point it is assumed that the terms of the trade will remain unaltered and go through as originally agreed upon. 

In that case, the Clippers can expect a return of Brandon Ingram and Grady Dick as well as multiple first and second-round picks as well as a pick swap, and in that scenario Ingram has the potential to be the Clippers' most impactful pickup of their rebuild so far. 

Ingram may not exactly fit into the youth movement that the Clippers have been trending toward in their rebuild, but he is coming off one of the best seasons of his career where he earned his second-career All-Star selection and with his play style and positioning, Ingram will be projected to be the one-for-one replacement of Leonard. 

How successful that replacement will be is of course dependent on Ingram being able to replicate the success he enjoyed in Toronto last season, but looking at the roster that he'll be surrounded with in Los Angeles, chances are very good that he'll be able to thrive in the Clippers' new system. 

Ingram thrived on a roster highlighted by RJ Barrett, Immanuel Quickley and Scottie Barnes, who all possessed skillsets that were complimentary of Ingram's play style. 

Barrett and Quickley are scrappy guards how can push the pace of the floor and pull defenders away either the interior or the perimeter, while Barnes was another physical presence inside the paint who acted as a deterrent for defenders and allowed Ingram to dominate in the midrange. 

All of those factors suited Ingram perfectly and led to a premier shooting season from him where he shot 47% from the field and 36.6% from three point range. 

The Clippers have a very similar roster construction. A backcourt combination of Darius Garland and Keaton Wagler accomplishes much of the same purpose that Quickley and Barrett did and should provide adequate spacing on the floor for Ingram to operate in any level of the court, while Derrick Jones Jr. and Rui Hachimura together are arguably better options at the four for Ingram to work with. 

Jones Jr. can provide the physical presence while Hachimura's three point shooting prowess would clear defenders out of either the perimeter or the paint respectively, providing ample space for Ingram's versatile scoring skillset to work no matter where he might be on the floor. 

Ingram thrives because he can be a threat at any spot on the floor and so long as he has a teammate that would warrant equal, if not greater, attention elsewhere, whether that be on the perimeter for Garland or Hachimura or inside the paint for Jones Jr., Ingram can slot in somewhere else and let his shooting, his midrange or his finishing go to work. 

The Clippers roster is a recipe for success for Ingram and could very well lead him to repeat as an All-Stat and be the focal point of the Clippers' offense.
