Dwight Howard is as confused about his bizarre preseason ejection as we are

Not even Dwight Howard knew why he was given a technical foul on Sunday.

In one of the most bizarre moments in recent preseason NBA history, Howard went from the fouled to fouled out with a 10-minute review, a technical foul and an attempted free throw from a disqualified Howard in-between in the third quarter of a preseason loss to the Nets.

While I can try to explain it all, knowing the facts won’t change the absurdity of the situation.

The sequence began with a loose ball foul called on Day’Ron Sharpe on an Austin Reaves made 3-pointer as he and Howard jockeyed for position in the post.
