Andre Drummond has become one of the most prolific FanDuel NBA performers as he chases his second career rebounding title.

The chase for historical greatness has proven to be a great benefit for any FanDuel NBA roster with Detroit Pistons center Andre Drummond anchoring the 5-spot.

Drummond is averaging 15.5 rebounds per game, one more than any player in the league, as he hopes to finish the year with his second career rebounding title.

While the former Connecticut star has excelled at collecting missed shots on both ends of the floor, it’s his ability to pile up staggering offensive rebounding numbers that truly sets him apart from the competition.

As the 24-year-old begins his sixth season in the league, he can establish himself as the best offensive rebounding center since Moses Malone.

Through 12 games, Drummond is tied with DeAndre Jordan for the league lead in offensive rebounds, with 63.

If he maintains his average of 5.3 offensive rebounds a game over the course of an 82-game season, Drummond is on pace to finish the year with 434 offensive rebounds, placing him in exclusive company.

Only Dennis Rodman and Malone have collected over 400 offensive rebounds three times in their career, a club Drummond nearly joined two years ago, but he fell just short with 395 offensive rebounds.

Malone went on to accomplish the feat a total of six times, but with Drummond leading the NBA in offensive rebounds each of the past four years, he could challenge him as the best offensive rebounder of all-time.

During his 19-year Hall-of-Fame NBA career, Malone posted 6,731 offensive rebounds — 2,133 more than any other player in league history. He also led the NBA in offensive rebounds eight times, while collecting six rebounding titles.

Drummond has become a matchup problem both on the court and in FanDuel NBA tournament play as a result of his exceptional offensive rebounding ability. Friday against Atlanta, Drummond pulled down a season-high 10 offensive rebounds.

In 397 career games, Drummond has totaled 10 or more offensive rebounds on 17 occasions. Boxing out Drummond has proven to be an impossible task, an advantage for any FanDuel NBA lineup featuring the dominant seven-footer.
