After a near-endorsement to rebuild from owner Tom Gores, the Detroit Pistons have been engaged with the Atlanta Hawks in trade discussions around Andre Drummond, ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported Friday.
The Pistons (12-23) have lost nine of their last 11 games and after making the playoffs last season are off to a disappointing start marked by injuries. Significantly, Blake Griffin has missed 15 games after being an All-NBA selection last season and starting point guard Reggie Jackson has played in all but two games and.
Drummond, 26, has stepped up and is averaging a career-best 17.
