Andre Drummond Quotes

I think I can score. But personally, I like to pass first, because people love people who pass. And I'm a point guard, so my job is to kind of get people open.

It doesn't matter who scores the points, it's who can get the ball to the scorer.

If it's a shot for me, if I can make a play, create for someone else, I'll do that. A lot of times you run a play, everybody's watching, everybody's locked in, everybody's pulling over, and it just makes the game tougher for me.

I've seen those mistakes where I could have just given an easy layup or quick dump pass just to get my teammates going, so I watched a lot of stuff on that. Now I see it, now I can make those plays and make sure I feed my teammates.

I've always been known more for giving assists than scoring - but of course, I enjoy scoring goals, too.

You don't want to be the selfish point guard. You want to be the guy that gets everybody open, that makes plays, and see the ball move before it goes in.

I don't worry too much about scoring. I worry about the assists.

I am the sort of player that likes to create goals. I think a lot of my team-mates know me as a player who is not selfish.

A forward always has to help the team, either with assists or goals.

I've always been the point guard, always been the floor general out there, and it's helped me see things I didn't previously see on offense from a shooting guard standpoint.

I love passing. I really do. And I try to get my teammates easy stuff.

We know that if someone is in a better position than you to score, you have to give him the ball.

I try to get as many assists as I can.

I just try to do what I do by getting my teammates open and getting better at finishing and making plays when I can.

It just depends on what's asked of me, but normally I'm looking to make the right, easy play. So if I can get a teammate a layup, if I can get him an open shot, I just think that gets the ball moving and I feel like it makes everybody feel good and we get into a better offensive rhythm.

I'm more than comfortable just sitting back and scoring 21, 22 points or whatever and getting 10, 11 assists whatever the case might be. More than comfortable with that. It's just a matter of the pieces that you have around you and what you can do to elevate everybody else.

I feel more comfortable with the ball in my hands, playing the point guard. But I like playing the 2, too. I think I bring tough defense and the ability to score and also get my teammates the ball to score.

My job is just to make the right play, read the defense, shoot if it's there, and make plays for my team.

When I step on that basketball court, I'm thinking about basketball, I'm thinking about winning - but there's so much that goes into thought about how I'm going to open this game up to others. It's so much more than just basketball.

To all the positions, I just bring the determination to win. Me being an unselfish player, I think that can carry on to my teammates. When you have one of the best players on the court being unselfish, I think that transfers to the other players.

My drive is other people's success.

Sometimes, it's good to have a tremendous star, because everyone understands he has to get the ball.

I'm used to being the main goal scorer, but I also always like to help.

To be the key player in creating and scoring goals, that's what I take pride in, and the thing I know how to do best.

Just try to get the puck and make plays, not so much worry about scoring or getting an assist or points, just try to get it and make plays. That should take care of itself.
