Earlier this week, Orlando Magic center, Dwight Howard, requested a trade to the Nets. After his request, general manager, Otis Smith, gave the superstar an opportunity to speak with potential teams he might sign an extension with. Those teams included the Nets, Mavericks, and Lakers. More recently, the Bulls said they had a package ready for Howard, which would include young talent, cap relief, and draft picks.
Now they are telling Howard that he might have to stay put, in order for them to get the best deal possible. "We wouldn't be who we are if we didn't take a look around all 29 teams and try to make the best deal for the Orlando Magic," said GM Otis Smith.
"[S]ources close to the team said there will be no rush to judgment on Howard's fate, no matter how uncomfortable the relationship might get leading up to the March trade deadline," writes Sam Amick. "When Howard requested a trade earlier this week, the source said he was told the Magic wouldn't succumb to the mounting pressure and that Howard should be prepared to play for the Magic for the foreseeable future."
