6 years agoCharlotte Hornets center Dwight Howard has been traded to the Brooklyn Nets in exchange for center Timofey Mozgov. In addition to acquiring Mozgov, Charlotte will also receive two second-round draft picks and cash. Howard saw a significant increase in production in his lone year as a Hornet, averaging 16.6 points, 12.5 boards and nearly two blocks per outing. In addition to getting Mozgov’s contract off the books, Howard can provide much needed relief for a Brooklyn team that struggled defending the interior last season. However, if center Jarrett Allen remains with the team this upcoming season, Howard will likely see a reduction in minutes.--Dennis Clausen - RotoBaller
