Andre Drummond was selected ninth overall in the 2012 NBA Draft by the Detroit Pistons out of UConn. During his rookie year, he only started in 10 games, but still averaged 7.6 rebounds per game on 60.8% FG. The very next season, he started in nearly every game and averaged 13.2 RPG on 62.3% FG. In the 2015-16 season, Drummond made his first All-Star game and All-NBA team, while leading the league in RPG (14.8). His career-high of 16.0 rebounds per game came in 2017-18 in which 5.1 of them were offensive.

ANDRE DRUMMOND IS ONE OF THE BEST REBOUNDERS IN NBA HISTORY

Over his nine-year career, Andre Drummond has led the league in rebounds for four years and in offensive boards six years in a row between 2013-2019. He is second among active players in offensive rebounds, behind Dwight Howard, and has the most since he entered the league. ‘Dre also has the most RPG among active players and has been in the top 10 for blocks in five different seasons. Drummond owning the highest rebounding percentage in NBA history solidifies him as one of the best to ever do it.
