Dwight Howard has had three stints with the Los Angeles Lakers over his legendary career.
During the 2020 season, he helped the Lakers win the NBA Championship over the Miami Heat.
Recently, Anthony Davis went viral for comments he made about wanting the team to add another center (via ESPN’s Shams Charania).
Lakers’ Anthony Davis sits down for ESPN: “One, we want to win it for the city. Two, we never got a parade. Three, it’s a lot of talk about an asterisk … We are (1-2 pieces away). I really feel like we are.”
