That’s meant hundreds of free throws and intense work on his inside offensive moves. He’s shown some deft touch on baby hook shots with both the right and left hands, as well as a pump fake to keep the defenders off balance.
Some of it was on display in the Pistons’ season opener on Tuesday night, as the Pistons pulled out a surprising 106-94 victory over the Hawks. It was a test for Drummond, as he faced Al Horford, one of the best centers in the Eastern Conference.
