Former Lakers champion Dwight Howard is trying to make a return to the NBA, the Warriors were interested but then closed the door for the center, the team he hopes signs him

After the news broke that the Golden State Warriors were going to meet with the former Lakers center Dwight Howard, many believed it was a done deal, but in fact, it was for a couple of workouts.

Howard went and worked out for the Warriors with players like Draymond Green and Chris Paul, but in the end, Golden State wasn't interested and didn't sign the big man.

Dwight is still hopeful of returning to the NBA with another team, as he believes to has more games left out of him despite his age and hasn't been in his prime anymore.

Via Fawzan Amer, Dwight spoke on one team he would like to come back to the NBA to play for "I would definitely want to come back and be a part of the Magic, their team and what they're trying to accomplish in Orlando now... Would be a great [thing to be] in Orlando to finish out my career where I started it, and for the young and upcoming and promising team who I feel would need some type of veteran leadership... I think it'll be very beneficial to the players, to the city, to the organization."

Dwight Howard could retire if doesn't find an NBA team

Things aren't looking bright for Howard, who could retire if doesn't find an NBA team for the second season in a row, as he had to play in Taiwan last year because no one signed him.
