Let's not get ahead just yet. Dwight Howard is not yet signed with the Golden State Warriors just yet but he got the approval of most veterans of the team so it's a good sign.
IMO, I like to see him play one more time in the NBA. I want to see that bully ball that he played against Nikola Jokic and every big man in the league.
I don't really care if he scores or not, just that mere defensive strength will get my hopes high about him. He may be seasoned but he can still play and looking at his physical attributes, he still got it.
It will just depend on Coach Kerr if he will give him the minutes if ever the Warriors management will sign him even for a veteran contract.
Dwight Howard is defensive with his strength which is unmatchable, always ready to take on his opponents with zero chances of losing the ball. Perhaps he's on the rader of Warriors, the coach, Kerr picks interest in him and would be excited to blend him into the team were he will explore more options. Dwight Howard is often consistent but with severe injuries, he's an outstanding player who needs enough time to gain form and fall back to the team. There are expectations from his supporters, because he's am important player and his presence will definitely benefits his new team.
But he is no longer in his prime though, maybe can play defense, but I don't see him as one of the best centers that we have in recent years. He is there, if ever the Warriors signs him, to give minutes when Looney is resting as he is the main center of the team.
So he is not the missing pieces that we should expect, he that his minutes will be restricted as a Warriors, but he should do his best when given the opportunity and for sure the Warriors are going to be very happy with that.
