Michael Jordan had the flu game, and now Andre Drummond has the avocado game.
The Pistons center was a game-time decision against the Mavericks on Thursday night because of an allergic reaction he had to the popular fruit.
Andre Drummond (avocado) is a game-time decision. Unreal.

The reaction apparently caused some swelling in Drummond’s eye, which would explain Detroit’s hesitation to play him.

Drummond ended up playing against Dallas in a losing effort, but he still finished with 23 points, 15 rebounds, three steals and a block.
