New Orleans Puts Home Win Streak on the Line Against Toronto

Brandon Ingram returns after a 459-day absence due to injury and trade, previously ranking in Pelicans' top 10 in points, rebounds, and assists, officials said.

  • On Wednesday night, Brandon Ingram returns to the Smoothie King Center for the first time in 459 days as the Toronto Raptors visit the New Orleans Pelicans.
  • The February 2025 deal saw Brandon Ingram traded to the Toronto Raptors for Kelly Olynyk, Bruce Brown, and draft picks, leaving as one of five Pelicans in franchise history to rank in the top 10 in points, rebounds, and assists.
  • Wednesday's matchup shows the Toronto Raptors face the New Orleans Pelicans at 8 p.m., with the Pelicans averaging 120.6 points and 47.8% shooting and the Raptors 109.8 points and 47.0%.
  • Pelicans interim coach James Borrego said the city should welcome Ingram back and Pelicans fans can show him how special he was, but Borrego and Trey Murphy III hope he doesn’t bring his A-game Wednesday or March 27.
  • Beyond tonight, Ingram's All-Star and Most Improved Player accolades, along with playoff performances, highlight his lasting NBA legacy, despite injuries and roster shifts.
