Andre Drummond: The only thing that really saved me was my athleticism—being able to guard one through five. If I had been slow and not athletic, I probably would’ve been out of the league after that $100 million contract,
honestly. My God-given talent kind of saved me in that sense and gave me a second chance to revamp my career. I feel like after Detroit, there was this bad taste with all the teams—how I was as a player. And that wasn’t who I was. I was a kid. I was a kid that made a lot of money. I’m from Connecticut; I had never seen $100 million in my life. I had never driven fast cars. I had never had a big house before.
