Dwight Howard has been a great center in the NBA for years, something the Charlotte Hornets haven’t had before. In his Orlando Magic days, he led them to the NBA finals under Stan Van Gundy in 2009.
Overall, his athleticism as a center allowed him to be one of the best players in the NBA for many years. However, Howard’s scoring has taken a bit of a step backward. The biggest question surrounding the Hornets and Dwight this season is if the first-ballot Hall of Famer can regain, or get close to, his all-star form. The success of the player and team could hinge on the answer.
