Pistons Post Obama-Drake Supercut For Andre Drummond All-Star Vote

Andre Drummond ... this boy's up to something.

Pistons' center Andre Drummond is a shoe in for next month's All-Star game in Toronto, but the team is going all-in to secure a starting lineup spot with a video they've unleashed on the Internet. After the first vote tally Drummond was third in the Eastern Conference frontcourt behind Lebron James and Paul George.

Enlisting the voice and likeness of President Barack Obama from countless news events -- the Pistons cut together a version of "Jumpman" by Drake & Future.

The song is full of basketball references including Chicago Bulls legend Michael Jordan who is a known fan of Drake's music and in turn Drake is an NBA fan. It's unknown if Drake or Obama are rooting for The Pistons or Drummond.

In the second verse, the video's creators take a few liberties with the lyrics substituting "Jumpman" with "Drummond" and "Chi-town" with "D-town".

Vote for Andre Drummond to be a starter by texting Drummond to 69622. Standard texting and data charges will apply.

Drummond appreciates a good Obama supercut as seen on his Vine account a couple years back.
