Dwight Howard's Team Wants Him To Take a 65% Pay Cut Despite His Efforts To Recruit NBA Players To Taiwan

It may be time to finally hang it up for Dwight Howard. Imagine spending months trying to recruit NBA players to your league and your front office hits you with a get ready to learn vet minimum buddy? Bro was averaging 23-16-5 and he's got his front office saying he's an unserious player. His highlight tape makes him look like Giannis out there and his team was like nah, that's not enough effort out there pal. Taking a pay cut in Taiwan may be one of the craziest things I've ever heard for a 8x All-NBA and 3x defensive player of the year. This is the same guy who last week was talking about how he's the best option to help the Kings contend for a championship. The even crazier thing is I think Dwight just wants to hoop so he might actually take that pay cut.

The spin zone here is that the recruiting worked and they're just clearing some cap space here for Ja Wick and Jordan Poole to don the famed white, blue, and gold next season. Imagine a super team suiting up for the perennial matchup of the Taoyuan Leopards versus the TaiwanBeer HeroBears? Tell me this doesn't look like an electric league:

We can dream.
