Andre Drummond plays a wrathful style of basketball.
He prefers to procure his points the old-fashioned way—in the paint. The Pistons’ all-star center uses his unique blend of size and strength to pull down 13 rebounds a night. His athleticism helps to provide a defensive presence at the rim. The 7-foot, 280-pounder throwback to the great centers of eras gone by.
Getting between him and the basket might cause opponents to catch an elbow. Ask Hornets big man Roy Hibbert. Drummond's also not afraid to intimidate verbally. Hibbert and others are familiar with his trash-talking. Pistons great Isaiah Thomas recently gave high praise to Drummond, telling Sporting News he would’ve fit in perfectly with the Bad Boys teams of the late 1980s and early ’90s.
