Sixers continuing to trust Andre Drummond to shoot corner 3-pointers
The Philadelphia 76ers are continuing to trust Andre Drummond to shoot 3-pointers from the corner when left open.
WASHINGTON -- Philadelphia 76ers big man Andre Drummond is in year 14 of his career, but he is still adding aspects to his game. In the 2025-26 season, Drummond has introduced an ability to shoot a corner 3-pointer efficiently. Per Cleaning the Glass , he is shooting 38% on strictly corner 3-pointers as he has added that part to his game while looking to find ways to contribute on a nightly basis.
Drummond has already made 30 3-pointers on the season which is more than what he's made in the entirety of his first 13 seasons. "He can shoot, right? " coach Nick Nurse said after a win over the Washington Wizards.
"I think that we planned on him kind of being this guy last year. Just couldn't quite get there with it. I mean, it's not, probably something he's been told to do much of his life, right?
Because of his size and position. But this year, he got over that hump. " Drummond knocked down two in the win over the Wizards on Wednesday and is looking to continue growing in that part of his game.
