After losing Mitchell Robinson, the Knicks found the center they were looking for. Andre Drummond agreed to a one-year deal with the champions worth $3.9 million, despite also having an offer from the Lakers.

The 32-year-old star played for the Sixers last season, averaging 6.4 points, 8.4 rebounds, and 1.3 assists in 19.5 minutes per game.

Since 2012, when he was drafted by the Pistons, Drummond has averaged 12.1 points, 11.9 rebounds, 1.2 blocks, and 1.2 steals per game over his career.
