Here’s the Detroit Free Press reporting on Pistons center Andre Drummond, who has quieted down a bit lately:

Whether it’s the aftereffects of a cold or the grind of ranking in the top 20 in minutes played, Andre Drummond isn’t showing the same energy from earlier this season.
Drummond, the NBA’s leading rebounder, only grabbed seven in the Detroit Pistons’ 103-87 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder on Friday night.
He scored 15 points, but he was only 7-for-16 from the field.
The lackluster effort had Pistons coach Stan Van Gundy looking back to another mediocre effort from earlier in the week.
“I didn’t think he brought much energy to the Milwaukee game, and I didn’t think he brought much energy tonight,” Van Gundy said of the two beatings the Pistons received this week. “Why that is, I don’t know. But we need a lot more from him than we got tonight.”
