The forward began his professional career with the now-defunct South Dragons of the NBL in 2006. He spent three years in Melbourne before moving to Spain to play for CB Granada and Barcelona. After one season with Maccabi Tel-Aviv in Israel, he finally made his NBA debut with the Jazz in 2014.

After a single season with the Bucks, Ingles was a free agent heading into this offseason. However, he quickly found a home. News of his deal with the Magic broke less than two hours after NBA free agency officially began.
