Detroit Pistons center Andre Drummond says he's still going to work on his 3-point shot despite people saying he shouldn't focus on that part of his game.

Drummond has made 10 3-pointers in his NBA career, but the Pistons star has been working on improving his jump shot this summer. The two-time All-Star made six 3-pointers in a game at the Miami Pro League recently. He finished with 53 points.

Via Vincent Ellis of the Detroit Free Press:

It appears Drummond, who turns 26 on Saturday, is ready to do his part for the Pistons, who will bring back the team's core from last season.

He’s trying once again to add another weapon.

“I’m still working on the 3-point shot, which everybody seems to not like for some reason, but who really cares?” Drummond said.

Pistons fans want Andre Drummond to focus on his post play instead of working on his 3-point game. However, if Drummond can become at least a minor threat from beyond the arc next season, it will make Detroit's offense that much better.

Last season, Drummond averaged 17.3 points, 15.6 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.7 blocks while shooting 53.3 percent from the field, 13.2 percent from the 3-point line and 59.0 percent from the charity stripe.

The Pistons made the playoffs for the first time since 2016, but got swept by the Milwaukee Bucks in the first-round. Drummond put up 14.3 points and 13.0 rebounds against the Bucks.
