The when called for part being the key for the Bulls big man.
At 6-foot-10, 280 pounds, Drummond knows what the true foundation of his game is built on. He knows what pays the bills.
On most nights, that involves physically moving other grown men, reminding them that rebounds are his for the taking, and anything that happens to fall in the hands of someone else is simply on loan.
Brute force exemplified, except when it comes to making waves.
The Bulls are Drummond’s sixth team since the end of the 2020 season, so the veteran understands that complaining about playing time or his role was something a younger Drummond may have done.
