Howard will look to fill the void that was left by big man DeMarcus Cousins when he tore his ACL over the summer.
While Howard’s first stint with the Lakers left much to be desired, there is no question that he has the opportunity to redeem himself if he is able to stay healthy and offer productive minutes at the center position.
Only time will tell whether or not that redemption does indeed come.
