A short-lived epoch

Dwight Howard was having the time of his life in Taiwan. The first season with Tayuan Leopards was quite impactful for the NBA great.

He even posed in many commercials, exhilarating his alternative lifestyle. However, his Taiwan tenure didn’t end well after he was asked to take a pay cut of 65%. Howard signed a $1 million contract initially, but his time in Taiwan was cut short after just one season.
