Josh Howard played 10 NBA seasons, most notably for the Mavericks from 2003 through part of the 2010 campaign. He was an athletic two-way player who could defend and score equally well, while shooting it from three at an above-average percentage.
Howard has been out of the league since appearing in just 11 games for the Timberwolves in 2013, but is looking to get back in -- just as he has been for the past couple of years.
"Ex-NBA All-Star Josh Howard, who is healthy now and has been working out at Impact in Las Vegas, is seeking a NBA training camp invitation," reports Marc Spears of Yahoo Sports.
