Clippers not shopping Ingram despite losing five first-rounders

Bleacher Report's Jake Fischer says the Clippers have no current plan to trade Brandon Ingram, who is set to join them via the pending Kawhi Leonard deal with Toronto.

Fischer said he has seen no indication the team is actively looking to move Ingram right now, though he did not rule out a future deal. The Leonard-Ingram trade itself is still expected to close, sending Leonard to Toronto for Ingram, Gradey Dick and several draft picks.

Los Angeles was stripped of five first-round picks and fined $30 million in the league's cap-circumvention probe, fueling speculation about a fire sale that Fischer says is not currently in motion.
