New Teams Enter “Serious” Dwight Howard Trade Talks

Disgruntled Magic Center Dwight Howard has wanted out of Orlando since last year. Could a deal finally be in place that would send him to the Los Angeles Lakers?

Yahoo! sports is reporting that two new teams, the Philadelphia 76ers and Denver Nuggets, are engaged in "serious" trade talks with the Lakers and Magic for a deal that would send Howard to the West Coast,  with several other All-Stars moving to new cities.

In a potential trade, current Olympian Andre Igoudala would go from Philly to Denver, Al Harrington would leave the Mile High City and join Howard in L.A., All-Star Center Andrew Bynum would go from L.A. to Philadelphia, while All-Star Olympian Pau Gasol and Nuggets guard Arron Afflalo would move to Orlando.

The Magic would also gain draft picks and salary-cap relief in the deal.
