The man is moving again.

The big man is going to play for a team in Taiwan.

Howard was one of the many Los Angeles Lakers who had a difficult season. After winning a title with the team in the 2019-2020 campaign, Howard spent a season as a backup in Philadelphia before coming back to the Lakers.

His second stint in L.A. didn't go as planned. The Lakers had a minus- 5.7 net rating with Howard on the court, which improved to minus-1.9 when he sat, according to NBA.com.

The main issue in LA was not Howard. Poor roster construction that left the team without solid perimeter defenders and shooters, injuries to superstars, and Russell Westbrook's awful fit and even worse form were all factors that were higher than Howard's mediocre play.

The Lakers relied on players such as Howard in the future. He isn't the player who was an eight-time All-Star in his heyday.

It is likely that he won't be coming back to the Lakers.
