Howard has epic joke about all teams he's been on
How does Dwight Howard sum up a career in which he's played for four different franchises in the past six years as he prepares to join a fifth team, the Washington Wizards?
With a long joke and his enormous smile.
During his introductory press conference with the Wizards, he said he joked with his trainer about what he's gone through along the way before coming to Washington:
"I learned Magic for 8 years, traveled to La La Land, learned how to work with Rockets, and I went and learned how to fly with some Hawks, got stung by the Hornets … through all of that, it's taught me how to be a Wizard."
Seriously, though: For a future Hall of Famer who's had a crazy roller-coaster ride in recent years and who's endured a ton of criticism from inside and outside the league, to keep it light and funny (in front of the cameras, at least) is an accomplishment.
