I think it's possible that the Lakers look to trade Russell for a top 5 pick that they then use on Hield but I can't see them spending #2 on him. Ingram's just a far FAR superior long-term prospect.
Hield's upside is Klay Thompson; a great set shooter with passable handles and court vision. Ingram's upside is Anthony Davis. Neither one of them are likely to approach that level, but Ingram just presents far more versatility and while Hield can be an exceptional complementary piece, I don't think he can be a cornerstone player. Ingram could be and the Lakers cannot pass on that possibility.
