Portland Trail Blazers: Dwight Howard could be frontcourt cure

Not many players in the NBA are quite as polarizing as the eccentric Dwight Howard. Don’t take it from me though, Howard even stated earlier this week that he’s “Never had a lot friends, and I’ve always been kind of weird.”

Despite his lack of NBA connections and self-imposed isolation, perhaps no locker room in the league could give him as warm a welcome as the Portland Trail Blazers.

With Jusuf Nurkic expected to be out until February recuperating from his devastating leg injury, Portland desperately needs some help down low to fill out the big man rotation behind Hassan Whiteside and Zach Collins.
