Like ancient glories, Dwight Howard decided to pursue his career abroad. At 38, the NBA champion set down his bags in Taiwan where he first signed up with the Taoyuan Leopards. But now, Howard is taking the next step since he will also become co-owner of a team, the Taiwan Mustangs and even of the league!
He himself announced it on social networks. “ Last year, after my first game in Taiwan, I looked at Mu Real and said, “Boy, one day I’m going to create my OWN league where ex-NBA players, top college recruits and top international players will be able to enjoy a stage to show the world what great players they are.” He looked at me like I was crazy, but that day has come! »
In the recruitment phase
Howard intends to recruit former NBA players, but also high school students and university players. The idea, undoubtedly, is to compete with the Chinese championship, or the NBL, the Australian league. The road will be long but he believes in it.
“Do you know anyone who plays in a league they own? » he asks. “ I am so lucky to have this opportunity to change the world! It’s also the playoffs in the NBA, and I‘sends my recruiters everywhere and I’m doing intensive recruiting this summer! Forget Cancun, join Tournament of Asia and play in my league! I’m currently looking for another NBA player to play on my team, the Taiwan Mustangs! Y’all, get this Shaq & Kobe meme ready, we’re going to dominate! »
