Revived Drummond leads Pistons over Nuggets

Auburn Hills — Andre Drummond made it known from the start there wasn’t going to be a repeat performance.

Coming off a dismal loss where the Pistons defense was torched in the first half, Drummond set the tone Saturday night by blocking Jusuf Nurkic’s shot on the Denver Nuggets' opening possession.

It was the beginning of another stout defensive effort as the Pistons bounced back to stifle the Nuggets and roll to their fourth straight double-digit victory at The Palace with a 103-86 win.

Drummond nearly recorded his second 20-20 game of the season with 19 points and 20 rebounds to lead the Pistons (4-2).
