Dwight Howard is the Orlando Magic and owner of the team, Richard DeVos, is doing everything to show the 26-year-old center how much he wants to keep him.
Just before the Magic’s game against the Miami Heat on Wednesday, via ESPN DeVos stated, “I don’t want to trade him.”
Who blames him? Why would anyone want to trade away the main staple in your franchise?
He continued adding that Howard is free to do what ever he wants, “You never give up. We’ve got a great talent, a great young man. He’s got to look at his options, what’s best for him and I have to tell him what I think is best for him. I’m selfish. The respect for people is fundamental. They have their interest where they want to go and they may or may not coincide with mine. Life goes on.”
Howard wants to lead a team to a championship but is money really the focus of him asking for a trade?
The Magic are now 16-10 which includes a hot start and a period of being blown out nightly.
Howard has begged the Magic to surround him with talent.
The same way Kobe begged the Lakers. Kobe’s organization sent in Pau Gasol.
