It is a common occurrence for NBA athletes to do promotional appearances at their team’s behest.
Often times it is pre-game meet-and-greets or offseason charity events. And sometimes it is a joint venture with a media outlet created for the purpose of generating buzz for both the team and the company.
Wednesday, center Andre Drummond of the Detroit Pistons took fans along for the ride as he participated in a radio promotion for the local radio station, channel 955.
The video footage was edited together and posted to the Pistons’ Youtube Channel as part of their Off the Court video series.

Drummond took time to answer questions and even helped some fans participating in one of the station’s regular on-air games.
Although he admitted that he is not much of a morning person, he seemed rather lively in the video. He seemed quite down-to-earth.
The video, which currently only has 303 views on Youtube, definitely shows a player who is rather kind and approachable.
