Andre Drummond had played a poor stretch for the Detroit Pistons before missing a couple of games with a concussion injury. He couldn’t make shots, he was just about missing point-blank dunk and lay-up attempts.
Many were left to speculate whether if Drummond was doing something differently, doesn’t fit the mold of the team, or if he is just a flat-out inefficient player. Although one of those things may be true in some aspects; the thing that came to mind for me is a pinky injury.
After a dominant performance against the Los Angeles Clippers January 12th, Drummond had told the media that he had been dealing with a pinky injury.
