After reporting that the Los Angeles Lakers and Dwight Howard had a mutual interest in a reunion with one another, recent Lakers rumors are about the possibility of Howard joining the Lakers. Shams Charania is reporting that the Memphis Grizzlies have officially granted the Lakers permission to meet with Dwight Howard:
In a perfect world, the Lakers would still have a healthy DeMarcus Cousins and be in great shape to contend for an NBA title. However, Cousins will likely miss the entire 2019-2020 NBA season with a torn ACL.
Although Boogie wasn’t the end-all-be-all for the Purple and Gold, losing the talented big man took away some significant hope from the Lakers.
