The Golden State Warriors might not be signing Dwight Howard

The news was recently announced by Shams Charania, NBA insider of ‘The Athletic.’ Taking to his X account, Charania noted, “The Warriors are not expected to sign Dwight Howard or another veteran center ahead of training camp, sources tell me.” The bombshell was dropped days after the speculations of the player joining the roster circulated. The 8x All-Star was even seen working out with Warriors stars Draymond Green and Chris Paul.

While Howard could’ve been a great rotational piece for the team, NBA fans were also waiting to watch the 3x DPOY back in the league. So, the news was quite disappointing for the athlete and fans alike. The 8x NBA All-Star might not be able to join the Golden State roster, but there is still hope.
