And it’s expected to come relatively soon, by Howard’s standards anyway. The Los Angeles Lakers, Houston Rockets, Golden State Warriors, Dallas Mavericks and Atlanta Hawks remain his top suitors.

When the Brooklyn Nets made the boldest move this offseason so far by trading for longtime Celtics Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, and NBA sharpshooter Jason Terry, many initially tabbed the Nets as instant Eastern Conference contenders.

According to Alex Kennedy of Hoopsworld, the Pistons have explored trading for both Rudy Gay and Rajon Rondo. Kennedy goes on to note that it’s unclear whether the Boston Celtics are interested [...]

Currently the Los Angeles Lakers are hoping Dwight Howard wants to play Kobe Bryant for the foreseeable future. Pushing 35 and rehabbing a ruptured Achilles, the Black Mamba isn’t the ideal superstar partner any more. When healthy, he’s a top-10 superstar, even a half-decade removed from 30. There’s just no telling how healthy he’ll be [...]
