• 76ers' Andre Drummond: Delivers double-double Friday

  4D ago • By RotoWire

  Drummond posted 14 points (6-12 FG, 2-7 FT), 12 rebounds and three steals over 22 minutes during Friday's 116-106 loss to the Lakers. It's the second double-double in eight starts for Drummond, and the veteran center has pulled down double-digit boards five times in that span while recording multiple steals four times. With Joel Embiid (knee/suspension) closing in on his season debut, however, Drummond's stint in the starting five is about to come to an end, likely on Tuesday against the Knicks.

• 76ers' Andre Drummond: Grabs 10 boards in loss

  6D ago • By RotoWire

  Drummond accumulated nine points (4-6 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 0-2 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist and one block across 32 minutes during Wednesday's 110-98 loss to the Clippers. Drummond will earn at least two more starts and may be in line for more as they gradually work Joel Embiid (suspension) back into the lineup. Although turnovers have been a bit of a problem for Drummond, he's been a serviceable big man with averages of 8.6 points and 10.6 rebounds through seven starts.

• 76ers' Andre Drummond: Coughs up five turnovers

  7D ago • By RotoWire

  Drummond finished Monday's 118-116 loss to Phoenix with eight points (3-5 FG, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and three steals in 15 minutes. Drummond tallied five turnovers without recording a single assist during Monday's loss. The veteran big man is averaging 8.5 points, 1.7 rebounds and 1.8 steals in 26.2 minutes across his six appearances this season. With Joel Embiid suspended for Philadelphia's next three games, Drummond should continue to start at center.

• 76ers' Andre Drummond: Grabs 17 boards in victory

  16D ago • By RotoWire

  Drummond racked up nine points (4-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), 17 rebounds, two steals, one assist and one block over 37 minutes during Sunday's 118-114 overtime victory over the Pacers. The veteran big man stepped into the starting five for a third consecutive game due to Joel Embiid's (knee) ongoing absence. Drummond, a historically great rebounder, secured a game-high 17 boards while shooting an efficient 4-for-6 from the field. Through three regular-season games (all starts), the big man has accumulated 39 rebounds, 30 points, six steals and three blocks across 22-plus minutes in each matchup. Drummond will likely serve as a viable streaming option as the second-string center behind Embiid, who is not expected to play in both games of any back-to-back sets this season.

• 76ers' Andre Drummond: Productive despite defeat

  19D ago • By RotoWire

  Drummond closed Wednesday's 124-109 loss to the Bucks with 10 points (4-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and 13 rebounds in 25 minutes. Drummond got the start at center with Joel Embiid (knee) out. With the latter being unavailable for the rest of the week, Drummond should make the most of that to pad stats on both ends of the court as the 76ers' starting center. Drummond might not get a lot of touches on offense regularly, but that won't matter much as long as he can rebound like he has done off the bench in previous seasons. An average scoring tally and his elite rebounding numbers would be enough to keep him relevant in most fantasy formats going forward.
