Andre Drummond was selected by the Detroit Pistons with the ninth pick in the 2012 NBA Draft and the New York native has already made almost 550 regular appearances for the team. With the Pistons, Drummond has established himself as a 2-time All-Star and has also led the NBA in rebounds in three of the last four seasons.

Nevertheless, Drummond has failed to create a dominant pairing with fellow All-Star Blake Griffin, and the Pistons remain desperate to compete during Griffin's remaining prime years. With no cap-space available, the Pistons' only path to improving their roster is trading Drummond, and the 26-year-old has stated his intention to hit free agency next summer.

Pistons owner Tom Gores has stated that keeping hold of Drummond is a priority. However, with his long-term future in doubt, Detroit is likely to be open to making a bold move, and plenty of teams around the NBA require a big man of Drummond's quality.
