Andre Drummond is seriously drinking beer for a diet

Typically, the medical experts will tell you to stay away from beer and liquor when you’re trying to lose weight.

That seems to be the opposite for Andre Drummond’s approach to a diet. According to the Detroit Free Press, the Pistons big man is drinking beer to keep up his intake of calories.

He’s not eating red meat or vegetables on this diet so he needs to do something to supplement that loss.

“If you do it the right way, it’s actually not bad for you and that’s why I’m doing it,” Drummond said with a laugh.

Drummond averaged a career-high in points per game last season for the Detroit Pistons. He’s under contract with the team for one season with a player option in 2020.
