Former Rockets center Dwight Howard displayed vintage form with his best game of the season in the Hornets' 111-105 win over the Nets.

Howard's 32 points, his second-highest total this season and the fourth time he's broken the 30-point mark, propelled the Hornets to victory and helped them split a four-game road trip.

Howard was also a monster on the boards, posting 30 rebounds for a double-double. He is the first player to have 30 rebounds in a game since Andrew Bynum in 2012. It shattered the Hornets' franchise record for most in a game, previously held by Emeka Okafor with 25 in 2006.
