BREAKING: Golden State Warriors Reportedly Make Decision On Dwight Howard
Dwight Howard spent this past year playing in Taiwan and is currently an NBA free agent, available to be signed by any team in the league.
Recently, Shams Charania of The Athletic and Stadium reported that the eight-time NBA All-Star would work out with the Golden State Warriors, and Jason Dumas of Bleacher Report and KRON4 News revealed that the meeting was concluded (on Wednesday).
Via Dumas on Wednesday: "Source: Dwight Howard has wrapped up his two-day interview process with the Warriors. A decision could come as soon as today. The vets have signed off on the idea of bringing Dwight into the fold. He will now head to LA to workout with Draymond & CP3 on Thursday."
Charania has now provided an update on Friday.
Via Charania: "The Warriors are not expected to sign Dwight Howard or another veteran center ahead of training camp, sources tell me. Howard had a two-day visit with the Warriors this week that included meetings and workouts. But the Warriors are expected now to maintain flexibility to sign a potential big man later in camp or into the regular season. So expect Howard to discuss a potential return to the league with any other interested team in the coming week or so."
Howard most recently played in the NBA during the 2021-22 season when he was a member of the Los Angeles Lakers.
The former first-overall pick averaged 6.2 points and 5.9 rebounds per contest while shooting 61.2% from the field in 60 games (27 starts).
