Andre Drummond is expected to be invited to Team USA's mini-camp during the summer.
A well-deserved look for Drummond, who flashed glimpses of monster potential during his rookie season. He averaged 11.1 points, 8.2 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 1.1 blocks on 67.1 percent shooting over 10 games as the starting center, and although he shot a terrible 38.6 percent from the free throw line over that span, that's an area of Drummond's game fantasy owners will just have to accept. He's oozing with huge fantasy upside. May 24 - 8:37 AM

Andre Drummond - F/C - Pistons

Andre Drummond is expected to work out with Hakeem Olajuwon during the offseason.

Previously, Drummond had "reached out" to the legendary big man, but now the two are expected to spend some time together. "I'm really excited for next season," Drummond said. He's already back in the practice facility, and time spent with "The Dream" will only allow Drummond to further grow his game. He's not going to be 20 until August.

Andre Drummond - F/C - Pistons

Andre Drummond is planning to use soccer and pool work during the offseason to improve his game under the supervision of strength and conditioning coach Arnie Kander.

Kander has been with the Pistons for about 20 years and his reputation in the field is well-established. Drummond, a seven-footer with a body fat index of around five-to-six percent, will do running drills in trails near his home, dribble a soccer ball up and down a basketball court and will spend a "fair amount of time in the pool." Kander is breaking down Drummond before building him back up, and it's going to be scary fun to watch AD next season in a full-time starting center role.

Andre Drummond - F/C - Pistons

Andre Drummond has "reached out" to Hakeem Olajuwon to work with him during the offseason.

Drummond is seemingly committed to doing anything he can to improve his game, and that's awfully promising for a rookie fantasy owners will salivate about through the offseason. Drummond will enter the offseason as the starting center in Detroit, and his fantasy ceiling is sky-high given what he's capable of doing as long as owners are willing to punt the free throw percentage category.

Andre Drummond - F/C - Pistons

Andre Drummond hit 5-of-7 shots and 3-of-3 free throws for 13 points, three rebounds, three steals and three blocks in 30 minutes of Wednesday's season finale, a loss to the Nets.

Drummond is healthy and played pretty well down the stretch. He's going to be a popular sleeper pick at center in next year's drafts, and if he can start hitting free throws with some consistency, he has the potential to be an absolute fantasy monster.

Andre Drummond - F/C - Pistons

Andre Drummond (ankle) returned on Monday and had five points, eight boards, two steals and one block in 33 minutes vs. Philadelphia.

He didn't miss any games with this injury, but left Friday's game in a lot of pain. Drummond shot 1-of-4 from the line and dropped his season free throw shooting to 35.9 percent on his 156 attempts this year. He should be paired with Dwight Howard on fantasy team next year.

Andre Drummond - F/C - Pistons

Andre Drummond (ankle) is starting against the Sixers on Monday.

It's a mild surprise since Drummond was in agonizing pain on Friday when he suffered a sprained ankle. He's been a much bigger part of the offense with 22 points per game in his previous two. He'll be worth starting in all leagues as long as you can stomach his woeful free throw shooting.

Andre Drummond - F/C - Pistons

Andre Drummond is still technically a game-time decision for Monday, but it does sound like he will be in the starting lineup tonight.

It's still not a lock that he plays, but all indications are that his ankle injury isn't serious and that he will give it a go tonight. Get him in your lineup and watch for more updates.

Andre Drummond - F/C - Pistons

Andre Drummond is hoping to play on Monday despite an ankle injury suffered on Friday against the Bobcats.

He's not a lock to play, especially since the Pistons are out of the playoff race, but it does sound like he'll give it a go if the coaches and trainers give him the go ahead.

Andre Drummond - F/C - Pistons

Andre Drummond (ankle) is officially a game-time decision on Monday vs. Philadelphia, but he expects to play.

Drummond's expectation might not match those of the trainers, but it is looking like the big man should be back in the lineup against the Sixers. If he sits out, Greg Monroe could be in store for a huge game and a lot of minutes.

Andre Drummond (ankle) will be a game-time decision on Monday.

Drummond went down hard vs. the Bobcats on Friday and while it doesn't seem like the injury is very serious, it's also uncertain whether Detroit would risk aggravating the problem is a meaningless game. If he ends up sitting out, he could still return for Wednesday's season finale.

Andre Drummond - F/C - Pistons

Andre Drummond said he expects to return at some point this year.

The Pistons have games on Monday and Wednesday before their season comes to a close, so having the weekend off could mean Drummond won't miss any games. However, he was in a lot of pain and rolled his ankle badly. He scored 15 points with nine boards, two steals and one block while shooting 7-of-13 from the field and 1-of-4 from the line in what could be his last game of the year.

Andre Drummond - F/C - Pistons

Andre Drummond sprained his right ankle in the fourth quarter of Friday's game against the Bobcats.

He went up for a rebound and landed on Bismack Biyombo's foot. Drummond was down for a few minutes and was in a lot of pain, so he'll likely be out for the rest of the game. Jonas Jerebko replaced Drummond and is a decent speculative add in deeper formats.

Andre Drummond - F/C - Pistons

Andre Drummond is taking a new approach in order to build his confidence at the free throw line.

Drummond finished 9-of-17 on Wednesday, and that's noteworthy considering he's shooting just 36.5 percent from the stripe this season. "I've just got to build confidence. So that's what I did today," he said. "When they fouled me, I was like, 'All right, you know you're going to make these, don't trip." Drummond went for 29 points and 11 boards, and his sky-high fantasy ceiling will be on full display the rest of the season.

Andre Drummond - F/C - Pistons

Andre Drummond hit 10-of-11 shots and 9-of-17 free throws on his way to a career-high 29 points and 11 rebounds, although he failed to block a shot.

We were begging for Drummond to be freed before he went down with a back injury earlier in the season and the Pistons have finally decided to turn him loose. He won't shoot it this well every night, but he also won't go many games without blocking a shot. Drummond looks like a must-start player the rest of the way, and the Pistons have somehow won two straight games.
