During a game against the Orlando Magic, New Orleans Pelicans star Brandon Ingram sustained an injury to his left knee after hyperextending it in the third quarter. The incident led to Ingram being assisted off the court with minimal pressure on his injured knee. Following the injury, the Pelicans announced that Ingram would not return to the game. An MRI conducted later revealed a left knee bone contusion. Ingram is expected to miss at least two weeks and is slated to be re-evaluated in this timeframe. This diagnosis was seen as relatively good news, considering the potential for more serious injuries. The Pelicans and their supporters are now awaiting further updates on Ingram's condition and his expected recovery timeline.

Best case. This is really fortunate https://t.co/pAXaMsqpZS
Certainly sounds better than it could have been based on the video. Two weeks is certainly a better alternative than being lost for the season, but we’ll know more after a couple of weeks. https://t.co/kSfhOFtjeb

Looks like a hyperextension for Ingram. My hope is it won't be a major injury for him, first thing you think of with that is a bone bruise.
Oh no Brandon Ingram... that did not look great for his knee.
