After spending the first seven-and-a-half years of his NBA career in Detroit, the Pistons traded their franchise center, Andre Drummond, to the Cleveland Cavaliers for Brandon Knight, John Henson, and a second-round pick in 2020. Including the Cavaliers, Drummond has played for five teams since leaving Detroit, and that includes two separate stints with Philadelphia.
Drummond, who is 32, could be on the move before the season starts. NBA insider Jake Fischer recently reported that the Sixers could trade Drummond or Kelly Oubre Jr. to create the financial flexibility to re-sign restricted free agent Quentin Grimes without going into the second tax apron.
