Dwight Howard has been in the NBA since 2004. He is best known for his days with the Orlando Magic where he made multiple All-NBA, NBA All-Star, and NBA All-Defensive teams. In 2009, he also led them to the finals. During 2007-2012, he was considered the best center and defender in the league, picking up the Defensive Player of the Year Award three years on the bounce.

As a role player, he won an NBA Championship during the 2019-2020 NBA Season. The character he has shown during the twilight period of his career, his humility, team-first attitude, and his readiness to perform has translated to his fatherhood.
