Bulls center Andre Drummond dunks during against the Atlanta Hawks during the second half of an NBA basketball game Tuesday, Dec. 26, 2023, in Chicago.

No Nikola Vucevic, no problem.

At least, that’s the energy that center Andre Drummond brought to the Bulls’ 118-113 win over the Hawks on Tuesday night at the United Center.

Drummond got his first start in place of Vucevic (strained groin) and quickly offered an indication of what was to come, grabbing an offensive rebound for an easy putback three minutes into the game and making the “too small” gesture as he ran downcourt.
