Do not be surprised, league sources say, if the Bulls move former All-Star center Andre Drummond before the Feb. 9 trade. Drummond has been allotted fewer than 15 minutes in each of Chicago’s past 12 games.

Drummond had 7 points, 5 rebounds in 6 very eventful minutes after not playing in first half. Shot 1-5 from line or would’ve done even more damage. – 8:54 PM

Andre Drummond making himself known in this third quarter. Five points in three minutes, and most importantly helping the Bulls go blow for blow with the physicality of this game. – 8:45 PM

With Myles Turner starting to torch the Bulls in this third quarter, Andre Drummond reports to the scorer’s table. He did not play in the first half. – 8:37 PM

Bulls have 22-10 edge in bench points already and that’s with Donovan using 8-man rotation because Goran Dragic is ill and Andre Drummond is suddenly a situational player. – 7:59 PM

Andre Drummond: Ugh here I go explaining something that shouldn’t be explained……. My post about the game was me expressing my frustration in a playful way instead of doing what I normally do and let it effect my mood.. was just trying to let you guys in on my thoughts 😂 lol -via Twitter @AndreDrummond / January 12, 2023
Justin Grasso: Andre Drummond ahead of last night’s game: “Sad that we had to break things up in February. I definitely miss playing here. I had a lot of fun playing for Doc. … The city of Philadelphia, the fan base is one of a kind, man, I loved being here.” #Sixers -via Twitter @JGrasso_ / January 7, 2023
Andre Drummond On if he felt blindsided by the deal “Yeah, I definitely was blindsided by it. I didn’t think I would be involved in it, but things happen and here we are.” -via Sixers Wire / January 7, 2023
