UNICAJA STINT FOR DWIGHT HOWARD?

As the end of the lockout remains uncertain, many NBA players, both stars and marginal, are looking elsewhere for temporary employment. Big men like Dwight Howard of the Orlando Magic can hone up their skills playing in the tough and lucrative European circuit. Howard, who posted norms of 22.9 points, 12.9 rebounds, and 2.4 blocks a game in 78 outings for the Magic last season, may see action for Unicaja Malaga squad in the Spanish pro league. Howard says it would be a great experience to play for a great team like Unicaja while awaiting the end of the lockout, according to La Opinion de Malaga.

“I hope they fix the situation as soon as possible to avoid losing a game of the season. The NBA is a global competition followed by millions of viewers and should not pass things like this. It would be fun to play at Unicaja, it sure would be a great experience for me. If the break does not stop I would come to Europe to continue to improve on a great team to end the lockout when ready.”
