Detroit Pistons misspell Andre Drummond’s name on jersey
What’s in a name? It seems not much as far as the Detroit Pistons are concerned.
The team misspelled Andre Drummond’s name on his jersey Monday night when the team was in Chicago to take on the Bulls.
The 21-year-old center’s name appeared as “Drummund” on his No. 0 jersey.
People on social media noticed, and the reaction was sympathy for Drummond while the team was denounced for what some called a disrespectful mistake.
After all, the Pistons took the Connecticut star with the No. 9 overall selection in the 2012 draft.
The Pistons have started the season 2-5, including their loss to the Bulls on Monday night.
