Cavaliers Trade for Two-Time All-Star Andre Drummond

The Cleveland Cavaliers have acquired center Andre Drummond from the Pistons, the teams announced Thursday. Detroit will get Brandon Knight, John Henson and a second-round pick in return.

Drummond recorded 31 points and 19 rebounds on Wednesday night against the Phoenix Suns. It marked his fifth consecutive double-double and leads the lead with 42 on the year.

He is averaging 17.8 points, 15.8 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game.

Drummond has spent the first eight years of his career in Detroit. He was selected out of Connecticut with the ninth overall pick in the 2012 NBA draft.

The Cavaliers are 13–39 on the season.
