Bulls center Andre Drummond expects to return from a six-game injury absence Wednesday against the Pelicans.
Drummond has a durable track record, so sitting even this many contests was a challenge for him. In seven of his 10 NBA seasons, he has appeared in at least 73 games.
"It's a long time. If anybody knows, I don't miss too many games in my career, so six games in a row is a lot for me," he said."Was getting very antsy at home, especially watching. Was working diligently, working hard to get back. So I'm excited to be back there tonight." The Bulls should be excited too. Drummond was incredibly productive in his first six games with the team, averaging nine points, 10.2 rebounds and one steal in just 16.8 minutes per game. In his stead, head coach Billy Donovan rolled out a small-ball frontcourt behind Nikola Vučević, headlined by Javonte Green and Derrick Jones Jr.
But in New Orleans enters a team that starts Zion Williamson and Jonas Valančiūnas, and brings Larry Nance Jr. off the bench. The Pelicans, as of this writing, rank fourth in the NBA in offensive rebound rate while slotting first and seventh in points in the paint and second chance points, respectively.
