When Detroit Pistons center Andre Drummond found out he was not selected as an NBA All-Star, he took to social media to express his frustration. Though Drummond was right to be upset at the snub, he kind of sounded a bit immature by immediately hopping on Twitter to complain.
Well, on Tuesday, Drummond found out that he was selected to play in the All-Star Game as a replacement for John Wall of the Washington Wizards, who will miss the game due to injury.

Following the news, a couple of NBA players took to Twitter to react to Drummond being named an All-Star. Those players were Ben Simmons of the Philadelphia 76ers and Jaylen Brown of the Boston Celtics.
Upon seeing those jabs, Drummond had kind words for Simmons but he fired a shot back at Brown saying, “no sure why Jaylen Brown is confused. He’s not even the top 3 option on his team.”

Maybe Drummond does not realize it, but Brown is second on the Celtics in both field goal attempts per game (11.3) and points per game (14.1), behind only Kyrie Irving in both categories.
