Tuesday's Pistons Links: Andre Drummond won't shoot FTs underhanded

Pistons' Andre Drummond dismisses underhanded free throws, report says: Andre Drummond was asked to spend the off-season working to improve his free-throw shooting, but it doesn't sound like trying them underhanded is one of the options in the works. The Detroit Pistons center shot down the idea again Friday to Dom Amore of the Hartford Courant. Drummond was in his native Connecticut on Friday for former coach Jim Calhoun's charity basketball game. -- MLive.com

Pistons' Michael Gbinije gets valuable experience at Olympics: Michael Gbinije and the Nigerian national basketball team won’t advance to the medal round at the Rio 2016 Summer Olympics, but the Detroit Pistons rookie did pick up some valuable playing experience. Pistons coach and president Stan Van Gundy said being part of the Olympic experience would only help the Syracuse rookie, who played just one Orlando Summer League game with Detroit because of an ankle injury suffered July 3. He signed his contract 11 days later. -- Detroit Free Press
