2. Dwight Howard

It seems like Dwight Howard has a goal to play for every team in the league before he retires. But the big man still has a shot to help whatever team decides to pick him up. If Howard isn’t hurt, which is rare, he is still a walking double-double.

The keyword being if.  Howard needs to either not get hurt, or learn to play through minor injuries. When Howard is healthy, he is a great rebounder, solid rim protector, and a good finisher. At this point in his career, Dwight is what he is.

If Howard can find a way to be on the court instead of in a cast, he could be a pretty solid contributor to whatever team picks him up.
