2016 Detroit Pistons preview: Drummond broke out, but still has more work to do

In many ways, 2015-16 was Andre Drummond’s breakout season. He made his first appearance in the All Star game. He was third team All NBA. NBA Player of the Week twice. He helped the Detroit Pistons to their best season in eight years.

Drummond set career highs in his point and rebounding numbers, also recording five games where he eclipsed the 20 point-20 rebound mark.

Dre has been a dominant rebounder since the moment he first set foot on the court and he’s somehow managed to improve each of his four years in the league. In the past it had always been his ability on the offensive boards that set Drummond apart, but last season he also became just as dominant on the defensive glass.
