Dwight Howard, in his prime days, was a terror for his opponents. Despite previously engaging in international league, he remains eager to get back to the NBA. Just months after his power display in Taiwan, the player got the opportunity to showcase his magic in Europe for the first time. However, the hopes of his latest deal offer from the Spanish basketball league also seem to dwindle as his recent cryptic X post alludes to.

Some fans even wrote how they want him back with the Lakers. They appreciate his contributions and wish to see him back in action. One of the fans even wrote, “So many teams NEED THIS DUDE. I’m befuddled why he isn’t on a team. He’s JUST AS GOOD AS RUDY GOBERT NOW! If not better!” Howard has previously played with the Taoyuan Leopards in the T1 league in 2021. He was able to gain much popularity among his international fans. The player still hopes to get back to the NBA. However, things haven’t worked out for him.
