Dwight Howard Trade Rumors: Medical Clearances For Howard, Brook Lopez Needed

Stay connected for news and updates

It hasn't been mentioned much during the fervor of trade and free agency rumors, but Howard is recovering from back surgery that ended his 2012 season in April and prevented him from presumably joining the 2012 Olympic team. Meanwhile, a right foot injury also ended Lopez's season in April, one he disputed was an aggravation of a previous injury.
