When the Pistons took 19-year-old Andre Drummond out of Connecticut with the number 9 overall pick, they knew they were getting a talented kid. The notion around the league was that he would be a bit of a project; he’s still extremely young, and many believe he massively underachieved at Connecticut. He’s one of the most talented big men around, it’s just a question of whether he can put it all together.
It’s only the preseason, but Andre Drummond has looked great so far. A big man combination of Monroe and Drummond could be problems for the NBA, which is moving towards small lineups.
For those of you who have doubts about his ability, watch the video below. Or ask Ersan Ilyasova.
Congrats Ilyasova, you’ve been posterized. Next time Andre Drummond is coming at you, I would just get out of the way.
