Andre Drummond or Al Horford? The NBA Stat Breakdown

This is as close as it gets. Andre Drummond and Al Horford split the statistical categories evenly — 4 apiece — making this one of the most genuinely contested C comparisons in NBA history. When the numbers are this balanced, the debate comes down to which statistics matter most to you.

Al Horford's Assists Per Game of 3.2 compared to Andre Drummond's 1.2 represents a 166.7% advantage — dramatically better than their counterpart in this critical category. Andre Drummond falls 33.3% below the career average of 1.8 in this category while Al Horford exceeds it. It is the single most decisive number in this comparison and the clearest statistical argument for Al Horford's edge.

The most competitive category in this matchup is Points Per Game, where Andre Drummond posts 12.1 against Al Horford's 12.7 — a gap of just 5%. Al Horford can point to this as evidence that the overall comparison is closer than the final 4-4 tally suggests. In any debate, Points Per Game is the statistical ammunition for the Al Horford side.

Centers have evolved dramatically across NBA eras — from dominant low-post scorers to modern stretch bigs. Career statistics must be evaluated with positional evolution and era context in mind.

With categories split evenly, this comparison ultimately comes down to which statistics matter most to you. Al Horford claims the tiebreaker through Assists Per Game advantage — a 166.7% edge — but reasonable people can, and do, argue both sides of this NBA debate.
