Dwight Howard has gone through three transitions in the last decade.

From 2010 to 2012, Dwight was the part of the Orlando Magic and was in his prime. He played at an MVP level and was one of the top five players in the league. He averaged around 20 points, 14 rebounds, three blocks and shot nearly 60% from the field during those two years.

From 2013 to 2016, he was with the Houston Rockets. He did not have the same lift but still was one of the better centres in the league. He averaged around 16 points, 12 rebounds and two blocks during that period.

From 2016 to 2019, he played for three teams and was not the same level as before. But he was able to maintain suitable numbers and contributed to his teams in the best possible way to regard him as one of the best centres in the league right now. He averaged around 13 points in that period.

With the stats, Dwight has also won Defensive player of the year award two-times and has been a 5-time NBA All-Star. He has also made it 5-times to the All-NBA and 3-times to the All-Defensive.

Unlike cousins, Dwight has recovered well from his injuries and is playing well this season for the Los Angeles Lakers. He is proving to be a great team player around Lebron and Davis.

There is no doubt that Dwight Howard is one of the best center of the last decade!
