The star center for the Detroit Pistons played a game of HORSE with ESPN’s Eric Woodyard recently and had some honest takes to let off during the unique interview.
Detroit Pistons’ center Andre Drummond is back in action after his bizarre avocado battle nearly midway through the NBA season.
A recent interview found Drummond showing ESPN Reporter Eric Woodyard around the new Pistons practice facility — and playing against his interviewer in a game of HORSE.
Andre Drummond: “I won’t compare myself to anybody when it comes to rebounding. In my mind, I’m the best ever.” Here is the extended version of my exclusive interview with Pistons star @AndreDrummond where we talk about Embiid, free agency and much more. https://t.co/1628vXzR2R

Drummond gives a loose interview — speaking honestly about his game, his upcoming free agency, his appreciation for the Bad Boys, and the recent on-court fight between fellow centers Joel Embiid and Karl-Anthony Towns.
KAT and Embiid GOING AT IT.

“That was a sissy fight. I don’t know what that was,” Drummond said with a laugh. “Nobody’s really trying to fight nobody in the NBA.”
Drummond and Embiid have had a surprisingly public feud over the last two seasons, but Drummond did call the Sixers superstar one of the best big men in the league in this interview.
The big man rightfully beats Woodyard in their game of HORSE and the two move on to tour the new practice facility and continue the interview along the way.
Woodyard asks the big man who he looks up to when it comes to his historic rebounding career and Drummond doesn’t shy away from his own skills.
“In my mind I’m the best ever,” he says.
The two go on to show off more of the facility and Drummond talks about his appreciation for Pistons teams of old and his efforts to help victims of the Flint water crisis. Woodyard is a Flint native.
Woodyard manages to sneak in a question about the Pistons’ future with Drummond which he appears to answer candidly as he looks toward his free agency in Summer 2020.
