Ingram.

They play separate positions, and Ingram is 3 years younger that Siakam. Ingram's peak is higher than Siakam's, IMO.

Think Siakam is probably a better defensive Thaddeus Young.

Edit: Starting from scratch, I'd take Ingram. On certain teams I'd definitely take Siakam.

One s 24 and a PF.

The other is 21 and a SG/SF.

Apples to oranges.

Siakam has been playing basketball for only 6 years

They're the same height and Siakam can clearly play SF if that's what Toronto wanted him to do

Lets also quit acting like basketball players are limited to one position

Thank you!

Might have been an apples to organges comparison 30 years ago, not today.

And Siakam is NOT a PF. He might play the 4, but he ain't no PF.

Well I'm biased for sure but Siakam is getting better every week at this point.

The age difference is certainly relevant.

The position difference is not, imo. They are both about 6'9". Siakim is 40 lbs heavier than him but he's hardly some immovable object. He's closer in frame to Paul George than Julius Randle.

At this point in their career it certainly would appear that Siakim is going to be the better pro. But Ingram still has time to develop into a legit NBA player.

Lebron has really hurt his career, IMO.

I'm sorry Ingram if you are in the same conversation as Chris Dudley...

fairly close.

i could make cases either way.

Siakam just seems to be the better athlete, and more aggressive. Better defensively.

Ingram has the potential to be a better pure scorer and a more wel lrounded offensive game I would say.
