Dwight Howard Will Become A Free Agent
That’s what his agent, Dan Fegan, said.
“Dwight’s position has remained unchanged since the end of this past season,” Fegan said. “He fully intends to explore free agency at the end of next season, regardless of what team trades for him, including Brooklyn.”
A source said the Nets never insisted Howard commit to an extension as a prerequisite for acquiring him, which Nets president Billy King confirmed in a text message.
Dwight Howard told the Magic, according to general manager Rob Hennigan, he would like to be traded to the Brooklyn Nets to strike a deal for Howard earlier this month, but were forced to stop when the Charlotte Bobcats threatened to sign their restricted free agent center, Brook Lopez, to an offer sheet.
Lopez was expected to be a key part of any deal with the Magic and signing an offer sheet could have preempted including him in any deal, depending on the terms of the offer sheet. The Nets then signed Lopez to a four-year, $61 million deal.
