Andre Drummond joins The Connecticut Scoreboard Podcast for a wide-ranging conversation about his return to Connecticut, where he's giving back to the community by hosting his annual youth basketball camp and inspiring the next generation of players.
We also look back at his one and done season at UConn, including Jim Calhoun's recruiting pitch, what it was like playing for a Hall of Fame coach, and just how close he came to returning for another year instead of entering the NBA Draft. Andre shares whether today's NIL landscape might have changed that decision and reflects on some of the biggest moments from his time in Storrs.
Plus, Andre discusses UConn's recent championship runs under Dan Hurley, why he enjoys watching the Huskies' continued success, and his thoughts on players like Alex Karaban carrying on the program's winning tradition.
The conversation also covers his 15+ year NBA career, lessons learned from playing with multiple organizations and much more.
