[Saba Sports News] Dwight Howard spent the 2022-23 season with the Taoyuan Leopards in Taiwan. While he received an invitation to work out with the Golden State Warriors, Shams Charania reported that the team is not expected to sign him or another veteran center before training camp. They plan to maintain flexibility to potentially sign a big man later during training camp or the regular season.
Howard, an NBA champion and 8-time All-Star, last played for the Los Angeles Lakers during the 2021-22 season and was seeking a return to the league. However, the Warriors did not move forward with signing him.
NBA fans had various reactions to this news, with some speculating that the Warriors might regret their decision, while others suggested that Howard may no longer be a valuable contributor at the highest level.
His recent workout with Draymond Green and Chris Paul prompted discussions among fans about their impressions of his performance.
Howard’s desire to return to the NBA was evident, but his future in the league remains uncertain as the Warriors keep their options open.
