But he also gives the team someone who will compete hard against Embiid in practice. “I’m playing against the best center in the league every single day, so not only is he getting the best work out of me, vice versa — I’m getting the best work out of him because he’s challenging me, as well,” Drummond said. “And for me, he knows I’m not gonna ever back down from him. “And it’s been like that [since] I’ve been in Detroit,” he continued. “I think that’s really why he respects me, because no matter how good he is, he might have the upper hand on me but I’m gonna keep coming. I’m gonna push him to be great. I’m gonna push him to be the best player he can be, really to show the world why he is the best center to play this game.” -via Clutch Points / September 10, 2024
