Dwight Howard Has Video Game-Like Debut in Taiwanese Pro League

Eight-time NBA All-Star Dwight Howard made his debut in Taiwan’s T1 League with the Taoyuan Leopards on Saturday and put together a jaw-dropping performance that has to be seen to be believed.

Howard dropped 38 points on 14-of-32 shooting, which included shooting at a 2-for-10 clip from beyond the arc. He added 25 rebounds, nine assists and four blocks to power the Leopards to a 120–115 victory over New Taipei CTBC DEA.

Howard, 36, was named the player of the game for his efforts, which helped lead Taoyuan back from a double-digit deficit at the start of the fourth quarter.
