Brian Lewis: The always-affable Andre Drummond was vexed at this morning’s shootaround, saying his quotes on Nic Claxton’s status & his own unrestricted free agency were misrepresented. Adds he wants to stay with the #Nets and was merely acknowledging nobody knows what’ll happen this summer. Brooklyn’s @AndreDrummond on narrative around last Wednesday’s comments: “Would I love to be here? Absolutely. Can I control that right now? No. I can only control what’s happening right now. We know that. So don’t misuse my words. That’s not fair to me & that’s not right.” #Nets
