    Imagine seeing this like 4 years ago

  2. BrusselSproutbrook

    Since Jokic is going insane in the west there’s definitely value for him out there, even if it’s just in limited minutes.

  3. PrimaryAccording9162

    The most wtf thing I’ve seen today

  4. onehundredpawsent

    Why the Kings specifically like is there a reason for that

  5. Kogie13

    My dude once said he wanted to join the Nets specifically and that never happened (well it technically did years later in a trade but he got bought out cause he sucked on a massive contract)

  6. KyrieWetUpCurry_

    He’s just trying to get back to Monk at all costs

  7. kapatinphalcon

    If he can rebound more than 5 boards a game, sign him up

  8. cough_landing_on_you

    Hi Dwight, we know you’re reading this.

    Dwight: “I got way too high a few months ago and ordered 10,000 “Dwight The Beam” shirts. I need you guys to help me out on this, I’ll cut you in.”

    Is he like super-washed or something? I was wondering why he wasn’t on a vet min for LA this season, seems like they could’ve used a backup big and he already won a chip with them. Did they have a falling out or something?

  11. girlscoutcookies05

    He just wants to light that beam. Can you blame him?

  12. Beastius

    ” I would love to help the Sacramento Kings come to Taiwan”

  13. Chemical-Character79

    Dwight Howard…..Cmon Down!

  14. skint_back

    Sometimes the player retires from the league, and sometimes the league retires the player.

    For Dwight, it is the latter.

  15. elxhapo

    Must got a boyfriend in Sac or something that’s hella random

  16. gab_owns0

    Dwight, for sure, could have been a useful big off the bench this year for a championship team.

    Hell, I would take him over Zeller.

  17. Naismythology

    Obviously I didn’t watch a *ton* of Taiwanese league games this year, but if Dwight is still in shape and can grab a few boards and put some effort on defense and eat up a few hard fouls, he’d definitely be worth a look.

  18. vrkhfkb

    He would be perfect on the Heat right now tbh. Get rid of zeller for him. In fact, silver should perform an emergency trade for game 3 just to repay Dwight for not making top 75.

  19. WhileFalseRepeat

    Who?

    Just kidding.

    If Tristan Thompson can still find a job in the NBA I don’t see why Dwight Howard can’t contribute some minutes in a supporting role.

  20. pepsidude102

    Probably could’ve used him instead of Alex Len. But Len has been a professional here through and through.

  21. thescottreid

    Dwight Howard is playing a long game of reverse psychology to make his way into the Lakers rotation. I’m convinced that’s what this is.

  22. bcsublime

    He has won so many, why can’t he win another with Sactown?

  23. Brick_HardCheese

    Does he still have the athleticism to defend down low? Because if so, honestly I would love that. We ain’t winning shit as long as Sabonis is our only rim defender.

  24. 33birdboy

    If he stayed in orlando….would he be one of them most popular athletes still?

  25. cinnamonandantonyms

    After spending a not insignificant amount of time this season screaming for us to get a rebound I wouldn’t mind Dwight for 10-15 minutes a night

  26. NoBigDill88

    Dwight can still defend amazing for a good 5-8 mins a game, he would definitely help out a team.

  27. Objective_Celery_509

    Honestly the warriors could use him

  28. Cbone06

    Honestly if he was on the Kings, between his defense and boards, he wouldn’t be a half bad reserve. It’d be an improvement over Richaun Holmes

  29. asvpmvson

    this is a sentence i never thought i’d hear

  30. InsideHangar18

    Oh that’d be interesting to see. Wonder if Sac would really be willing to bring him in

  31. KarrotMovies

    I want Dwight to comeback, so that he can make a video recruiting himself to Taiwan after his season ends

  32. killbejay

    He can take Metu, Len and Holmes roster spot for the Kings

  33. xxGunsRazorsKnivesxx

    I feel like he could work on the Heat
