Drummond is a 6-10, 279-pound center entering his 14th season, wearing No. 0 for New York. Last season in Philadelphia he played 63 games at 19.5 minutes a night and averaged 6.4 points, 8.4 rebounds and 1.3 assists. He shot 47.2 percent from the field, 35.6 percent from three and 63.1 percent from the line, with a 53.9 true shooting percentage and a 14.3 usage rate. His plus-minus was -1.4. His five Knicks games so far show the same profile: rebounding and short bursts of scoring in limited minutes.
