Dwight “Superman” Howard is an NBA Champion, having won his only NBA title with the Los Angeles Lakers in the 2019-2020 season.
After being a dominant force for the Orlando Magic, leading them to the NBA Finals in 2009, his championship came late in his career with the Lakers.
Nicknamed “Superman” for his athletic prowess, he is an NBA champion, eight-time All-Star, eight-time All-NBA Team honoree, five-time All-Defensive Team member, and three-time Defensive Player of the Year.
After the 2021–22 NBA season, Howard moved overseas and signed with the Taoyuan Leopards of the T1 League. In his lone season with the team, he was named a T1 All-Star.
He was elected twice to the 2025 Basketball Hall of Fame as an individual player and member of the Redeem Team.
Standing 6 feet 10 inches (2.08 m) and weighing 265 pounds (120 kg), Howard played the center position. He led the NBA in rebounding from 2007 to 2010, and again from 2012 to 2013. Howard’s rebounding was in part facilitated by his extraordinary athleticism; his running vertical leap was tested at 39.5 inches (100 cm) in 2011, rare for a player of his size.
He demonstrated this skill in the 2007 Slam Dunk Contest, where he completed an alley oop dunk from teammate Jameer Nelson while slapping a sticker onto the backboard at 12 ft 6 in (3.81 m) high.
