Dwight Howard has been gathering attention playing for Taoyuan Leopards in Taiwan. Seeing the media coverage and fan attention he gets, a team from another continent has reportedly decided to acquire the center.

According to Cancha Latina, the Venezuelan basketball club Guaros de Lara want to sign Howard for the upcoming Venezuelan SPB 2023 season.

If the former Los Angeles Lakers big man signs with the team, he would not be the first NBA veteran to play for the club. Previously, Nate Robinson, Smush Parker, and Damien Wilkins competed in the tournament.

Allen Iverson was also associated with Guaros de Lara but the club denied local reports about a done deal.

Currently, the offseason is underway in the Venezuelan league. The new 2023 season should start in July.

Howard recently became the MVP of the Taiwanese All-Star Game. Before the All-Star break, Howard managed to play 15 games for the Taoyuan Leopards, averaging 25.6 points, 14.4 rebounds, and 6 assists per game in 33 minutes of play.
