Fue All-Star y ala -pívot de la NBA . Comenzó su carrera en la NBA como la quinta selección general en el draft de la NBA de 1994 , seleccionada por los Washington Bullets . Antes de ser reclutado, interpretó a un All-American en el equipo de baloncesto masculino de Michigan Wolverines . En Michigan, formó parte de la clase de reclutamiento Fab Five de 1991 que llegó a la final del Torneo de la NCAA en 1992 y 1993 . Howard ganó dos campeonatos de la NBA con Miami, en 2012 y 2013 .
Howard fue un centro All-American y un estudiante con honores en la Academia de Carreras Vocacionales de Chicago . Michigan pudo contratarlo temprano por numerosas ofertas competitivas y luego convencer a otros en su clase de reclutamiento para que se unieran a él. Los Fab Five, que incluían a Chris Webber , Jalen Rose , Jimmy King y Ray Jackson , sirvieron como titulares regulares durante sus años de primer y segundo año para los Wolverines de 1991–92 y 1992–93 . Howard fue el último miembro de los Fab Five en permanecer activo como jugador de baloncesto profesional. Aunque muchos de los logros de los Wolverines de la década de 1990 quedaron vacantes debido a violaciones de las reglas de la NCAA cometidas por cuatro miembros del programa, Howard no estuvo personalmente implicado en el escándalo y su temporada 1993-1994 All-American continúa siendo reconocida.
Howard jugó siete temporadas (1994-2001) para la franquicia Washington Bullets (rebautizada como Wizards en 1997), tres temporadas (2004-2007) para los Houston Rockets , tres temporadas para el Heat y períodos más cortos para varios otros equipos. Durante su año de novato con los Bullets, se convirtió en el primer jugador en graduarse a tiempo con su clase después de dejar la universidad antes de tiempo para jugar en la NBA. Después de una temporada como jugador All-Rookie y una segunda como All-Star y All-NBA, se convirtió en el primer jugador de la NBA en firmar un contrato de $ 100 millones. Si bien continuó siendo un titular productivo, nunca más fue seleccionado para jugar en un Juego de Estrellas. Hacia el final de su contrato, fue canjeado en la fecha límite de cambios de la NBA dos veces para hacer espacio en el tope salarial . Recientemente fue titular regular durante la temporada 2005-06 de la NBA . En 2010, firmó con el Heat y pasó a hacer su primera aparición en las Finales de la NBA en su carrera . Permaneció con el Heat la temporada siguiente y ganó su primer campeonato de la NBA durante las Finales de la NBA de 2012. Regresó al Heat durante parte de la temporada siguiente y ganó un segundo campeonato. Después de retirarse como jugador en 2013, permaneció con la organización del Heat como entrenador asistente durante las siguientes seis temporadas, antes de aceptar el puesto de entrenador en jefe en Michigan.
Howard ganó numerosos premios por su desempeño como entrenador en la temporada 2020-21, [2] durante la cual llevó a los Wolverines al campeonato Big Ten. [3] Ha desarrollado una reputación como humanitario por su compromiso cívico.
Vida temprana
La abuela de Howard, Jannie Mae Howard, era hija de aparceros de Belzoni, Mississippi . Tenía cuatro hijas cuando cumplió 19 años, incluida la madre de Howard, Helena. Helena era empleada de un restaurante de Chicago cuando quedó embarazada de Juwan. El padre de Howard, Leroy Watson, acababa de regresar del ejército para trabajar en una compañía telefónica en Chicago. Los dos se casaron rápidamente una vez que se dieron cuenta de que Helena estaba embarazada. Durante la primera semana de vida de Howard, su madre de secundaria lo mantuvo en un cajón en la casa de Jannie Mae. [4] Helena, que tenía 17 años, no quería verse restringida ni agobiada por la crianza de su hijo, por lo que Jannie Mae lo adoptó. [5] Su padre biológico, Leroy Watson Jr., quería llamarlo Leroy Watson, III, pero su abuela rechazó la sugerencia e insistió en Juwan Antonio Howard. [6] Aunque su madre lo visitó en ocasiones mientras él crecía, su abuela lo crió, [4] junto con dos primos. [7] Howard no tiene hermanos y no está cerca de sus padres biológicos; [8] su abuela fue la principal influencia en su vida. [4] Se mudó con ella a varios proyectos de bajos ingresos en el South Side de Chicago ; ella lo mantuvo alejado de los problemas y de las pandillas mientras crecía. [4] Una de sus residencias era un apartamento de tres habitaciones en la calle 69 en el lado sur de Chicago. [5] A medida que florecía bajo la influencia y la disciplina de su abuela, se convirtió en su "orgullo y alegría". [5]
Escuela secundaria
Howard fue a la Academia de Carreras Vocacionales de Chicago , donde pasó a jugar tres temporadas de baloncesto universitario. [9] Vocational tenía un gimnasio sin calefacción y sin vestidores , lo que requería que el equipo se vistiera para los juegos en un aula de historia. [7] No obstante, Howard pasó a ser nombrado jugador de baloncesto All-American de 1991 por la revista Parade y ganó los honores de McDonald's All American . También fue elegido para la Sociedad Nacional de Honor y se desempeñó como rey de la fiesta de bienvenida de Vocational . [5] [6] [10] [11] Durante las visitas de reclutamiento de los entrenadores universitarios como Illinois ' Lou Henson , DePaul ' s Joey Meyer y Michigan 's Steve Fisher , Jannie Mae Howard hizo la mayor parte de las preguntas. [6]
Segundo año
Al comienzo de su segundo año en 1988, Howard tenía 15 años y ya espera que sea un codiciado primer orden recluta en 1991. [12] Fue considerado como uno de los mejores jugadores de segundo año de baloncesto de la zona metropolitana de Chicago . [13] Anotó 26 puntos en una derrota en cuartos de final de la Liga de Escuelas Secundarias Públicas de Chicago contra un equipo de la Academia de Carreras Simeon dirigido por Deon Thomas . Vocational terminó el año con un récord de 23–7. [14] Howard fue una selección del segundo equipo y el único estudiante de segundo año nombrado para el equipo de 20 jugadores de la liga 1988–89 All-Public League de los entrenadores de la liga. [15] [16]
El verano después de su segundo año, el centro de 6 pies 8 pulgadas (2,03 m) asistió al campamento Nike Academic Betterment and Career Development (ABCD) , que se llevó a cabo anualmente en Princeton, Nueva Jersey , a fines de la década de 1980. [17] Allí lo compararon contra Shawn Bradley, de 2,24 m (7 pies y 4 pulgadas) . En este campamento, a pesar de que Bradley, que era mucho más alto, bloqueó sus tiros varias veces, Howard se estableció como uno de los mejores hombres grandes de tercer año del país. [18] Estuvo involucrado en una controversia por recibir un segundo par de zapatillas en el campamento porque se sospechaba que las había robado. [19] Howard negó el robo, pero fue enviado a casa el último día del campamento de seis días. [19]
Howard también participó en el campamento de Bill Cronauer en Rensselaer, Indiana , al que asistieron más de 100 entrenadores universitarios. Según el Chicago Sun-Times , fue clasificado como uno de los 10 mejores estudiantes de primer año en el país durante el campamento. [19] [20] Howard asistió a otros campamentos ese verano; su objetivo era superar a Thomas, quien fue el jugador de baloncesto reinante del año en el Chicago Tribune , [21] como el mejor hombre grande del estado. [19] Para cuando terminó su carrera universitaria en 1994, Howard fue seleccionado una ronda completa por delante de Thomas. [22]
Año junior
Cuando Howard ingresó en su tercer año, algunas fuentes lo catalogaron como el mejor jugador de baloncesto juvenil en Illinois, [23] mientras que otras ubicaron a Tom Kleinschmidt por delante de él. [24] Taylor Bell, del Chicago Sun-Times, señaló que Howard se inclinaba por jugar para DePaul o para Illinois. Howard estaba interesado en Illinois porque Thomas, a quien Howard admiraba, se había convertido en miembro del equipo Fighting Illini de 1989-1990 . [23] Al final de su tercer año, los entrenadores de la liga lo nombraron para el primer equipo All-Chicago Public School League. [25] Fue seleccionado para el equipo Chicago Sun-Times All-Area, así como para el equipo Class-AA All-State y se estableció como el mejor junior del área de Chicago por delante de Kleinschmidt. [26] [27] [28] Howard tuvo un desempeño por debajo del promedio contra King High School en las semifinales de la Liga de Escuelas Públicas de Chicago, [29] pero el Chicago Tribune lo nombró para su segundo equipo All-State. [30] Vocacional terminó el año 24–7. [31]
Howard también fue un estudiante de honor. [29] Después de su tercer año, fue uno de los 10 jugadores de Illinois invitados al Nike All-American Camp en Princeton. Otros invitados incluyeron a Kleinschmidt, Donnie Boyce , William Gates , Billy Taylor , Rashard Griffith y Howard Nathan . [32] Aunque Howard era considerado uno de los mejores prospectos en la ciudad de Chicago en ese momento, el jugador percibido como el mejor prospecto del área de Chicago era Glenn Robinson de Gary, Indiana . [33] Para entonces, Howard había eliminado a DePaul de la consideración desde que Deryl Cunningham, otra estrella del área de Chicago que de otra manera podría haber convencido a Howard de quedarse en Chicago, se había transferido a Kansas State . Estaba considerando Michigan, Michigan State , Kentucky , Arizona , Dayton , Marquette e Illinois. [33] Howard fue evaluado como el mejor jugador de baloncesto senior del campamento; el grupo de jugadores que asistieron incluyó a Chris Webber , Cherokee Parks , Robinson y Alan Henderson . [29] [34]
Después de ser nombrado Jugador Más Valioso (MVP) en el prestigioso Boston Shootout y reconocido como el participante líder en el campamento de Nike, Howard fue mencionado como el mejor prospecto del país. Para entonces, había eliminado Michigan State e Illinois de su lista de posibles destinos universitarios y también había comenzado a considerar la UNLV . [29] Después de su tiempo en el campamento de Nike, su casa fue asediada por reclutadores. Howard emitió la siguiente declaración: "Comuníquese con mi entrenador. No quiero que mi abuela y mi tía se molesten por las llamadas en todo momento del día y de la noche. No soy la única persona que vive en esta casa. Creo que mis deseos deberían ser respetado. Si no, cuando llegue el momento de tomar mi decisión, tendré esas cosas en cuenta ". [35] Aunque Howard fue el mejor intérprete del campamento, el buscador de talentos Bob Gibbons sintió que Webber y Robinson eran prospectos igualmente talentosos. [36] A pesar de las preferencias universitarias enumeradas más recientemente de Howard y del hecho de que el equipo estaba siendo investigado por infracciones de reclutamiento, Illinois continuó persiguiendo a Howard como su recluta número uno. [37] A finales de julio de 1990, se proyectaba que Howard firmaría con Michigan. [38]
Último año
Durante la visita a domicilio de Michigan, la abuela de Howard invitó al entrenador en jefe de Michigan Fisher, a sus asistentes Mike Boyd y Brian Dutcher, al entrenador vocacional Cook, al entrenador asistente vocacional Donnie Kirskey, a Lois Howard (tía de Howard) y a Howard con una cena de comida para el alma . [39] Dutcher tenía la responsabilidad de ponerse en contacto con Howard varias veces a la semana. [40] Howard se acercó al entrenador asistente Kirskey, a menudo se quedaba en su casa y usaba su automóvil una vez que obtenía una licencia de conducir . [41] Durante el período de visitas de 30 días del verano de 1990, Dutcher observó a Howard practicar 28 días consecutivos. [40] Dutcher desarrolló una comprensión de la dinámica de la relación de Howard con su abuela. Mientras que otros entrenadores, como Lute Olsen , casi la ignoraron durante el reclutamiento, Dutcher entendió que ella era la influencia clave en su vida, [4] y comprendió que Kirskey también tenía influencia sobre Howard. Animó a Fisher a contratar a Kirskey para un campamento de baloncesto de verano, que se convirtió en la introducción del joven atleta a Ann Arbor, Michigan . [41]
Howard era el presidente del Consejo Vocacional de Niños Mayores. [42] En los últimos días antes de su decisión de la temporada senior con respecto a su equipo de baloncesto universitario , Howard vaciló entre el estado de Arizona y Michigan. También hizo una visita oficial a Dayton. [30] A pesar del escándalo de reclutamiento en curso, hizo una visita no oficial a Illinois, que había reclutado a cuatro de los cinco Jugadores del Año de Illinois de la Liga de Escuelas Públicas de Chicago. [43] En el momento de su decisión, Howard era considerado uno de los cinco mayores del país, pero a diferencia de muchos de los mejores reclutas de baloncesto, decidió no realizar una conferencia de prensa para anunciar su elección. [44] Aunque el período de firma oficial se fijó del 14 al 21 de noviembre de 1990, seleccionó Michigan el 2 de noviembre. [45] La abuela de Howard murió de un ataque cardíaco pocas horas después de que anunció que asistiría a Michigan, [5] y se mudó con su entrenador de la escuela secundaria, Richard Cook. [6]
Howard promedió 26.9 puntos, 8.4 rebotes y 3.4 asistencias durante su temporada senior, [5] y terminó en el 10 por ciento superior de su clase académica. [46] Llevó a Vocational a las semifinales de la Liga Pública donde perdieron ante Westinghouse College Prep , terminando con un récord de 25-5, a pesar de sus 25 puntos y 12 rebotes. [47] Se hizo amigo de Jimmy King cuando visitaron Michigan el mismo fin de semana; Según el Chicago Tribune, Fisher Howard influyó en la decisión de King de inscribirse también allí. [5] [48] Según Clyde Travis del Chicago Sun-Times , el compromiso verbal de Howard compensó el fracaso de Fisher en reclutar a Eric Montross el año anterior, [49] a pesar de que el padre y el abuelo de Montross habían jugado para Michigan. [50] Con Jalen Rose , Webber, Howard y King, junto con Ray Jackson , un prospecto menos anunciado, la clase de reclutamiento de Michigan se consideraba la mejor de la nación. [51] Algunos consideraron a la clase como una de las clases de reclutamiento más grandes de todos los tiempos. [52] [53]
En su último año, Howard superó a Griffith y Kiwane Garris por la mayor cantidad de votos para el equipo de baloncesto masculino anual de la liga de escuelas públicas All-Chicago del Sun-Times . [54] También fue seleccionado para el equipo de All-Area y fue una repetición de la selección de All-State de Clase AA. [55] [56] Howard, Kleinschmidt y Robinson fueron seleccionados para el primer equipo de 10 miembros del equipo de baloncesto masculino All-America de 40 miembros de la escuela secundaria de la revista Parade . [11] También fueron elegidos para jugar en el juego McDonald's All-America. [10] West MVP Webber registró 28 puntos y 12 rebotes en el juego; con Howard agregando 16 puntos, el Oeste ganó 108-106. [57] Howard también ganó el premio al Jugador del Año de Illinois del Círculo de Campeones de Gatorade. [58] La puntuación de la prueba ACT de Howard fue lo suficientemente alta como para hacerlo elegible según los requisitos académicos de la Proposición 48 para jugar como estudiante de primer año. [59] Sólo ocho de los 25 mejores jugadores de la Liga de Escuelas Públicas de Chicago lograron un puntaje de calificación en la prueba. [60]
Carrera universitaria
Primer año
Howard se matriculó en la Universidad de Michigan y se unió a sus compañeros de primer año de los Michigan Wolverines de 1991–92 para formar un grupo que se conoció como los Fab Five . También se unió a las futuras personalidades de la NBA Eric Riley y Rob Pelinka . [61] Mientras Michigan celebraba Midnight Madness el 15 de octubre de 1991, ya se hablaba de que al menos cuatro de los cinco estudiantes de primer año comenzarían antes de que terminara la temporada. [62] (Los cinco finalmente comenzaron en un total combinado de 304 de los 350 juegos posibles entre ellos durante sus dos primeras temporadas). [63] Al principio de su temporada de primer año, Howard comenzó en algunos juegos y salió de la banca en otros para los Wolverines altamente calificados. [64] Con el tiempo, ganó un papel inicial de Riley. [65] En el primer enfrentamiento de Michigan contra Illinois, Howard anotó 13 puntos y le negó a Thomas el balón lo suficientemente consistente como para mantenerlo en 8 tiros. Su mayor contribución en el juego fue poner su mano en una pelota suelta para forzar un salto con 16 segundos por jugar y Michigan a la cabeza por solo tres puntos. [66] En la ronda Elite Ocho del Torneo de Baloncesto de la División I de Hombres de la NCAA de 1992 , Michigan se enfrentó a un equipo de Ohio State Buckeyes dirigido por Jimmy Jackson que los había vencido dos veces durante la temporada regular por márgenes de dos dígitos. [67] Michigan ganó la revancha, durante la cual los Fab Five anotaron todos menos dos de los puntos de los Wolverines. [68]
La victoria le dio a los Wolverines 24-8 un lugar en la Final Four , donde se encontraron enfrentados a un equipo de Bearcats de Cincinnati entrenado por Bob Huggins 29-4 que promedió 83.6 puntos por juego y había perdido solo contra tres equipos, dos de los cuales habían derrotado Michigan. [69] Nick Van Exel lideró a Cincinnati en anotaciones de postemporada. [70] Howard, King y Riley se afeitaron la cabeza para el juego. [71] Michigan ganó y se ganó una revancha con un equipo de Duke Blue Devils que los había vencido por tres puntos en tiempo extra en diciembre. [5] [72] En el concurso inicial, Howard había anotado sólo cuatro puntos. [5] Al ingresar al juego final, promediaba 11.2 puntos y 6.3 rebotes en la temporada. [5] El día antes del juego, Howard tuvo calambres en el estómago y fiebre y recibió líquidos para combatir la deshidratación. Como resultado, se le eximió de las reuniones obligatorias con los medios. [73] [74] Howard fue parte de una rotación con Webber y Riley que protegió al Jugador Nacional del Año, Christian Laettner . [5] Durante los primeros seis posesiones de Laettner contra Howard, Laettner cogió el baloncesto de su pie, falló en su remate, lanzó un pase que resultó en una rotación , viajado , lanzó el balón y golpeó el tablero con un solo tiro. [5] Duke anotó en sus últimas 12 posesiones del juego de campeonato, con una racha de 23-6 para ganar por un margen final de 71-51. [75] A pesar de su condición, Howard contribuyó con 9 puntos en 29 minutos. [73] Howard se ganó una reputación por su rapidez en los pies, su capacidad para comprender los fundamentos y sus excelentes movimientos en el poste bajo , pero también por su proporción de asistencia / pérdida de balón de 1 a 2 y una gran cantidad de faltas . [5]
Segundo año
Cuando comenzó su segundo año, los informes de los medios alegaron que a tres jugadores de baloncesto de los Wolverines se les pagó $ 300 cada uno para participar en un torneo benéfico de baloncesto a mediados de 1992, durante la temporada baja. Los informes alegaban además que algunos otros, incluido Howard, aparecieron juntos en varios campamentos de baloncesto de verano, lo que era una posible violación de las reglas de la NCAA. [76] Al comienzo de su temporada de segundo año 1992-93 , Michigan regresó a sus nueve mejores anotadores y comenzó la temporada en el puesto número uno en el país por Associated Press . [77] Michigan perdió su segundo juego de la temporada en una revancha con Duke . [78] Howard fue descrito como el jugador más firme del equipo esa temporada por el entrenador Fisher. [79] Durante la temporada, Howard compró una póliza de seguro por discapacidad de un millón de dólares aprobada por la NCAA bajo el Programa de Seguro por Discapacidad para Estudiantes Atletas Excepcionales disponible para los estudiantes-atletas que se proyecta que serán elegidos entre los mejores de la NBA, Liga Nacional de Fútbol Americano (NFL) y borradores de las Grandes Ligas . [80]
En las semifinales del Torneo de Baloncesto Masculino de la División I de la NCAA de 1993 contra Kentucky , Howard contribuyó a la ofensiva y mantuvo a Jamal Mashburn bajo control a la defensiva; Mashburn no hizo un gol de campo en los últimos 12:36 del tiempo reglamentario. [81] [82] El periodista deportivo Jay Mariotti escribió que Howard había hecho "un excelente trabajo defensivo" al proteger a Mashburn. [81] Los 31-4 Wolverines se enfrentaron a los 33-4 North Carolina Tar Heels en el juego de campeonato; tanto Fisher como el entrenador en jefe de Carolina del Norte, Dean Smith , buscaban su segundo título nacional. [83] Durante el partido por el campeonato, Howard cometió su segunda falta personal con 9 minutos 42 segundos restantes en la primera mitad y pronto fue sustituido ya que todo el equipo se enfrentó a una acumulación de faltas. [84] [85] El juego sería recordado por una falta técnica tardía contra Webber por intentar pedir un tiempo muerto cuando a los Wolverines no les quedaba nada; esto llevó a una victoria de Tar Heels. [85] [86] En el transcurso de la temporada, Howard promedió 14.6 puntos y 7.4 rebotes. [87] Después de la temporada, Webber y Howard fueron invitados a probar para el equipo de baloncesto nacional de Estados Unidos que competir en los Juegos Universitarios Mundiales 1993 y Sub-22 Campeonato Mundial . [88] Howard no formó parte del equipo. [89]
Año junior
Con la partida de Webber a la NBA después de su segunda temporada, el equipo de los Wolverines 1993-94 entró en la temporada en el quinto lugar en la nación al abrir la temporada contra el número 13 de Georgia Tech . [90] Dado que su abuela nació el 25 de diciembre, Howard se hizo un tatuaje que decía "Jannie Mae" sobre su corazón durante las vacaciones de Navidad. [7] Durante la temporada, Howard contrajo varicela en enero. [91] Michigan tenía un récord de 21-6 (13-4 Big Ten ) y empató con los Purdue Boilermakers por el liderato de la conferencia con un juego por jugar. [92] Michigan luego perdió (por tercera vez en sus últimos cuatro juegos) ante un equipo de Northwestern Wildcats en apuros , [93] y terminó segundo en el Big Ten. [94] Después de la temporada, Howard fue seleccionado como miembro del primer equipo All-Big-Ten junto con su compañera de equipo Rose, Robinson de Purdue, Shawn Respert de Michigan State y Damon Bailey de Indiana . [95] En la primera ronda del Torneo de Baloncesto Masculino de la División I de la NCAA de 1994 , Howard ayudó a Michigan a una victoria en tiempo extra 78-74 sobre Pepperdine al anotar 28 puntos y agregar 9 rebotes antes de cometer una falta. [96] En la segunda ronda, Howard registró 34 puntos y 18 rebotes para llevar al equipo a una victoria 84-79 sobre Texas . [97] Michigan se enfrentó a Maryland dirigido por Joe Smith en la ronda de Sweet Sixteen. [94] Howard anotó 24 puntos y tuvo 11 rebotes antes de cometer una falta con 2:49 por jugar en la victoria por 78–71. [98] Howard ganó el premio MVP regional con 30 puntos y 13 rebotes en la ronda Elite Eight, a pesar de recibir dos faltas en los primeros dos minutos y perder contra los Arkansas Razorbacks , que tenían al presidente de los Estados Unidos, Bill Clinton, en asistencia. como partidario vocal. [99]
El 18 de abril, Howard anunció su intención de ingresar al draft de la NBA de 1994 . [100] Al día siguiente, Rose anunció que también entraría en el draft. [101] A Howard le faltaron 37 horas crédito para los requisitos de título de la Universidad de Michigan, pero dijo que tenía la intención de mantener su promesa a su abuela de que obtendría su diploma. [102] Howard dejó Michigan después de ser nombrado tercer equipo All-American de Associated Press durante su tercer año, y los Washington Bullets lo eligieron quinto en el Draft de la NBA de 1994. [103] Howard estuvo representado por David Falk . [104]
Graduación
Howard se convirtió en el primer atleta de la NBA que ingresó temprano al draft y se graduó con su clase académica, [105] cumpliendo así una promesa que le había hecho a su abuela el último día que la vio con vida. [106] [107] Le dijo a Mitch Albom que cuando llegó a la NBA, se dio cuenta de cuánto tiempo libre tenían los jugadores multimillonarios y decidió hacer algo productivo en lugar de buscar formas de gastar sus nuevas riquezas. "Sabía que si seguía presionando, nunca lo lograría", dijo. Completó sus últimas 32 horas de curso tomando clases de verano en 1994 durante la temporada baja de la NBA. Tomó clases por correspondencia y cursos de estudio independiente durante la temporada siguiente, estudiando en viajes por carretera y enviando sus papeles por correo desde la oficina de correos más cercana. Al final, obtuvo una Licenciatura en Artes grado en comunicaciones en Michigan. Le dijo a Albom que obtener su título lo convertía en un mejor ejemplo cuando hablaba de permanecer en la escuela. [107] Aunque Howard había pasado el año anterior jugando en la NBA, regresó al campus para participar en las ceremonias de graduación con sus compañeros de clase. [106] Durante la graduación, la oradora principal Marian Wright Edelman rindió un reconocimiento especial a Howard y sus compañeros de equipo de Fab Five, King y Jackson, quienes se graduaron juntos, y señaló que la graduación de Howard lo convirtió en un modelo a seguir para los niños. [108]
Pérdidas
Aunque los juegos de los Fab Five en la Final Four se han perdido desde entonces, [109] Howard no estaba entre los jugadores, que incluían a Robert Traylor , Webber, Rose, Maurice Taylor y Louis Bullock , llamados ante un gran jurado para testificar [110]. en el escándalo de baloncesto de la Universidad de Michigan . No estuvo implicado en el escándalo. [111] Aunque la NCAA sancionó el baloncesto masculino de los Michigan Wolverines al perder muchos de sus récords y logros de 1992 a 1998, el estado de Howard como All-American 1993-1994 permaneció intacto. [63]
Carrera de la NBA
Washington Bullets/Wizards (1994–2001)
Entering the 1994–95 season, the NBA players and owners had not yet agreed on the terms of a new collective bargaining agreement, and Howard was unsigned two weeks before training camp began. He continued to train in Chicago in late September amidst rumors that his draft rights could be traded to another team.[104] While holding out, he was rumored to be part of a trade package with the Chicago Bulls that included Calbert Cheaney and a first-round draft choice in exchange for Scottie Pippen.[112][113] Another rumor had Howard being packaged with Rex Chapman and Don MacLean for Pippen.[114] On November 9, eleventh overall 1994 NBA draft selection Carlos Rogers signed an NBA contract, making Howard the last first-round selection without a contract.[115] He missed most of the first month of the season and resided at an O'Hare Airport hotel while protracted talks continued.[112] Howard's agent David Falk said that one of the main problems was that the Bullets wanted Howard to sign for a lower average salary than number six selection Sharone Wright.[7] The Bullets stuck to a 10-year, $30 million ($52.4 million in 2020 dollars[116]) offer.[117] On November 17,[118] Howard signed what was believed to be a 12-year, $37.5 million ($65.5 million) contract.[112] Howard's contract, which Sports Illustrated later said was an 11-year $36 million ($62.9 million) deal, had an escape clause.[7] Once he signed, he was reunited with Michigan teammate Webber as a member of the Bullets.[119] Webber, who had also sat out training camp and the first eight games of the season,[120] was traded from the Golden State Warriors to the Bullets on November 18 for Tom Gugliotta and three first-round draft choices.[118]
After Webber joined the Bullets, many thought that the two former Fab Five members would bring success to the team, coached by Lynam. The Washington front line was expected to include Webber, Howard, and Kevin Duckworth and to have Gheorghe Mureșan, a 7-foot-7-inch (231 cm) Romanian center, coming off the bench.[120] Chapman, MacLean, Cheaney, Mitchell Butler and Scott Skiles were expected to provide solid perimeter play.[120] Experts projected the Bullets as contenders for the Eastern Conference title.[120] The Howard/Webber Bullets debut against the Boston Celtics established new Bullets television ratings records for the Home Team Sports network.[121] However, the early season trade left the team in a state of confusion due to lack of familiarity, which resulted in communication difficulties on the court.[122] Howard eventually moved into the starting lineup.[112] As a power forward, Howard posted impressive numbers after he became a regular starter.[112] Howard participated in the February 11, 1995, NBA All-Star weekend events as a member of the Rookie Challenge.[123] He earned second team All-Rookie honors at the end of the season.[103] That month, he became the second Bullet (since the award's inception in 1981) and first since Jeff Ruland in January 1982 to be named NBA Rookie of the Month.[124] During the month he averaged 20.1 points, 8 rebounds and 1.2 blocks in 14 games, including his first two 30-point games.[125] The following month Howard suffered an ankle injury, missing a total of 10 games (all of which were Bullets losses).[126] Over the course of the season, he averaged 17.0 points per game and posted 17 double-doubles in 65 games played (52 starts).[103][127] He totalled 30 points or more on three separate occasions.[127] The members of the team combined to miss a total of 317 games due to injury,[128] and the team finished the season with a 21–61 record.[129]
At the end of his rookie season Howard finished his undergraduate degree, and graduated from the University of Michigan, becoming the first NBA player to graduate after leaving college early.
In the off-season, the Bullets traded Chapman, MacLean and Duckworth,[130][131][132] and drafted Rasheed Wallace in the 1995 NBA draft.[133] In the preseason, the Bullets played the Detroit Pistons in an October game at the University of Michigan's Crisler Arena, marking a homecoming for Howard. Webber was sidelined with a shoulder injury and missed the homecoming.[134] Prior to the 1995–96 season, the Bullets were expected to be a contender with Webber, Howard, Muresan, Mark Price, and Robert Pack. However, Webber, Price and Pack missed almost the entire year (65, 75 and 51 games respectively) because of injuries.[128] In February, the New York Knicks made two trades that put them in position to bid on Howard in the 1996 free agent market.[135] Since Falk was the agent for both Patrick Ewing and Howard, sportswriter Dave Anderson of The New York Times felt the Knicks would have a good chance at Howard in July when the free agent market began.[136]
Howard earned his only career NBA All-Star Game selection for the February 11, 1996 game.[103] A Sports Illustrated story showed examples of him dominating games at will during that season.[7] Howard also made news that season for his theatrics after being ejected from a February 27 game against the Charlotte Hornets. He kicked a water cooler across the court and was fined $5,000 for making an obscene gesture.[137] He concluded the season by scoring at least 20 points in his last 16 games.[138] Howard became just the second player in Washington franchise history, after Bernard King, to post back-to-back 40-point games (against Boston on April 17, 1996, with 40, and at Toronto on April 19, 1996, with 42).[139][140] The 42 points proved to be his career high.[141] His strong finish earned him an NBA Player of the Month award for April.[105] In spite of the injuries to key teammates, 1995–96 was Howard's best season, statistically. During the season, he finished third in the NBA in minutes played, 6th in points scored and 10th in points per game (22.1).[103] He was the Bullets' leading scorer.[142] Over the course of the season, he accumulated 22 double-doubles in 81 games, including 6 in his last 8 games.[138] At the end of the season, he was named to the All-NBA team.[103] In addition to his two 40-point performances, he posted 3 additional 30-point performances and scored at least 20 points in 56 of 81 games.[138] Averaging 22.1 points, 8.1 rebounds and 4.4 assists,[141] he helped the Bullets record 39 victories.[143] This was not enough for the Bullets to make the playoffs during their ninth consecutive losing season.[144]
After averaging 17 points per game as a rookie and more than 22 per game in his second season, Howard became a free agent when the Bullets made some salary cap transactions. The Bullets offered Howard an $89 million contract, but the Miami Heat outbid them with a seven-year deal estimated to be worth $98 to $101 million. However, according to the NBA league office, the Heat miscalculated their available salary under the salary cap by excluding performance bonuses for Tim Hardaway and P. J. Brown and failing to account for the impact of renegotiating Alonzo Mourning's contract before coming to terms with Howard.[145] The league rejected the contract on July 31 because Howard's $9 million for the 1996–97 season placed the Heat over the cap.[145][146] Howard then re-signed with the Bullets on August 5. He became the first player in NBA history to sign a contract worth more than $100 million;[147][148] his seven-year contract was worth $105 million (equivalent to $173,000,000 in 2020). The league ruled on August 5 that the Bullets could re-sign Howard after having renounced his rights on July 15 to free up cap room to sign Tracy Murray and Lorenzo Williams if they forfeited their 1997 NBA draft first-round selection rights.[149] The Bullets were not limited by the cap because they were re-signing their own player.[146] The Heat pursued legal remedy in Florida state courts, seeking acknowledgment of the prior validity and superiority of their earlier contract.[149] Although an arbitration case involving the two contracts that Howard had signed appeared likely, ESPN reported that the Heat dropped their legal pursuit of Howard.[150] The league moved for federal jurisdiction although the case remained on the docket for New York University Law professor Daniel Collins to serve as arbitrator on three issues: "1.) Did the Heat circumvent the cap in first signing Mourning?; 2.) Did the Heat miscalculate bonus money for forward P. J. Brown and guard Tim Hardaway that was not counted correctly against the cap.?; 3.) Did the Heat add an illegal performance clause to Brown's contract?." Meanwhile, the Heat's contract was protected by a temporary injunction in Florida state court, which forbade any newer contract by Howard from abrogating his Miami contract.[142] The Heat eventually dropped their case but the team, especially head coach Pat Riley, continued to vehemently claim that their case of wrongdoing in the form of erroneous rulings by the league had been very solid.[151][152] If the Heat had pursued arbitration and had been found guilty of violating the salary cap, the team could have been fined $5 million and Heat coach Riley could have been suspended for the season. By dropping their actions, the Heat avoided any possible penalties.[153] In addition to signing free agents Murray and Williams, the Bullets traded for Rod Strickland and Harvey Grant.[154]
As a statement against gun violence, Bullets owner Abe Pollin sought to change the franchise's name.[155] The Bullets became the Washington Wizards after asking fans to vote on the name.[156] Although before the 1996–97 NBA season the Bullets/Wizards were expected to make the playoffs with Webber, Howard, and Strickland, there were rumors that Webber had difficulty adjusting to being a less important part of the offensive game plan in the presence of All-Star Howard.[157] Howard was plagued with shin splints, causing him to miss several preseason games.[158] On November 11, 1996, Howard failed a sobriety test when he was caught speeding and was charged with driving while intoxicated.[159] The following month he pleaded not guilty and committed to enter an alcohol rehabilitation and education program.[160] After Lynam coached the Bullets to a 22–24 record, he was fired and the Bullets hired Bernie Bickerstaff, who posted a 22–13 record.[161] Over the course of the 1996–97 season, Howard accumulated 24 double doubles in 82 games,[162] while averaging 19.1 points and 8.1 rebounds.[141] Although Howard averaged over 19 points per game and played all 82 games,[141] he only scored 30 or more points twice during the regular season.[162] The team finished its regular season with a 44–38 record but was swept in three games in the Eastern Conference first round by the Chicago Bulls, who went on to win their second consecutive NBA championship.[163] The 1997 NBA Playoffs were Howard's only NBA playoff appearance in his six-plus seasons with the Washington franchise, and he averaged 18.7 points and 6 rebounds while playing 43 minutes per game.[141] The playoff appearance marked the franchise's first playoff appearance since the 1988 NBA Playoffs.[164]
The Wizards relocated from the US Airways Arena to the MCI Center for the 1997–98 season,[165] during which Howard totaled 11 double-doubles in 64 games,[166] while averaging 18.5 points and 8.0 rebounds.[141] He scored between 20 and 29 points 31 times that season but failed to score 30 points in any game.[166] Howard injured his ankle and was unable to play between February 5 and March 17.[166][167] During Bickerstaff's only full season as the Washington coach, the team posted a 42–40 record.[168]
On April 6, 1998, Melissa Reed filed a sexual assault complaint against Howard and Webber after a party at Howard's house. Lawyers for both offered different accounts. Howard's lawyer said that Reed had initiated an unspecified consensual sex act with one of the men, but Reed, who could not afford a lawyer,[169] claimed to have entered a room with Webber before being struck and restrained prior to being sexually assaulted.[170] Neither Howard nor Webber testified in the case, and although the accuser and approximately 40 of the party attendees appeared before a grand jury, the Montgomery County State's Attorney announced that prosecution was not warranted and closed the case in May.[171] This came just after the Wizards' general manager Wes Unseld separated Webber and Howard on May 15 by trading Webber to the Sacramento Kings, receiving Mitch Richmond and Otis Thorpe in exchange.[172] In June, Howard filed suit against Reed, seeking compensation for emotional distress for damage to his reputation and image.[173] The accuser was absent during the proceeding and failed to respond to the lawsuit for defamation. In November, Howard was awarded the $1 in compensatory damages that he sought to clear his name and $100,000 in punitive damages plus legal costs.[174]
After the 1998–99 NBA lockout, the Wizards posted an 18–32 record in the shortened season. The team started out 13–19 under Bickerstaff and was 5–13 under Jim Brovelli after Bickerstaff was fired.[175] Howard was a vocal critic of Bickerstaff throughout his tenure, stating the coach was unable to make proper in-game adjustments.[176] Howard, who again had an ankle injury,[177] missed the last 14 games of the season. Over the course of the 1998–99 season, he posted 11 double-doubles and two 15-rebound performances in 36 games,[178] while averaging 18.9 points and 7.0 rebounds.[141]
During the 1999–2000 season, Howard accumulated 10 double-doubles in 82 games,[179] while averaging 14.9 points and 8.1 rebounds.[141] The Wizards endured a 14–30 start under head coach Gar Heard before going 15–23 under Heard's replacement, Darrell Walker.[180] According to Sam Smith from the Chicago Tribune, Howard had become unpopular and a bit of a disappointment by his sixth season in Washington.[181] He posted 30 points twice,[179] including a season-high 36 in a fourth-quarter comeback to end a five-game losing streak in January.[182] During the offseason, Howard's name surfaced in trade rumors that had him going to the New York Knicks in exchange for Ewing because the Wizards' management thought that the trade would better position the team for the 2001 free agent market.[183] Following the season, Walker was replaced by Leonard Hamilton, becoming the team's sixth head coach since last making the NBA Playoffs four years earlier.[184]
Although it had been five years since his only All-Star appearance, Howard was the fourth-highest-paid player in the NBA during the 2000–01 season, behind Kevin Garnett, Shaquille O'Neal and Mourning.[185] Howard, along with Strickland and Richmond, were marquee names on the team under contract to earn at least $10 million.[184][186] On December 31, 2000, Howard, posted his career high of 15 made free throws in a game against the Detroit Pistons.[141] Despite the fact that the February 11, 2001 NBA All-Star Game was hosted by Washington at the MCI Center, Howard was not included on the Eastern Conference team even when it had to make two late additions (Anthony Mason and Latrell Sprewell). According to Milton Kent of The Baltimore Sun, not only did Howard's statistics (approximately 18 points, 7 rebounds and 2.8 assists) compare favorably to both players, but his role as his team's primary scoring option made his statistics more significant than those of Mason and Sprewell.[187]
Dallas Mavericks (2001–2002)
Michael Jordan, who had become the Wizards' head of basketball operations the prior season, traded Howard, Obinna Ekezie, and Calvin Booth to the Dallas Mavericks for Laettner, Loy Vaught, Etan Thomas, Hubert Davis, Courtney Alexander and $3 million on February 22, 2001, at the NBA trade deadline.[188][189] Jordan's move was praised for freeing up salary cap space in advance of the NBA's first season with a luxury tax.[190] The trade served the Mavericks by giving them a new offensive weapon and enabling them to match up defensively against the NBA Western Conference power forwards such as Wallace, Tim Duncan, Karl Malone and Webber.[190][191] Washington finished the year with a 19–63 record under coach Hamilton.[192]
During the 2000–01 season, the Mavericks finished 53–29 under coach Don Nelson.[193] Howard provided the Mavericks with a back-to-the-basket player who moved into the starting power-forward position, enabling Dirk Nowitzki to play small forward and Shawn Bradley to play center.[194] During the season, Howard tallied 16 double-doubles and five 30-point performances in 81 games,[195] while averaging 18.0 points and 7.1 rebounds.[141] On a team with All-Star Michael Finley and future MVPs Steve Nash and Nowitzki, Howard was the highest-paid player.[196] On March 20, Howard blocked five shots, his career high, against the Portland Trail Blazers.[141] In the 2001 NBA Playoffs, the Mavericks advanced past the Utah Jazz 3 games to 2 before losing to the San Antonio Spurs, 4 games to 1.[193] The Utah games marked the first time Howard played for a team that won an NBA playoff series.[103] In the first game of the series against the Spurs, Howard slammed Spurs guard Derek Anderson to the floor while trying to block Anderson's layup late in the game.[197] Anderson suffered a separated shoulder on the play, and Howard received a flagrant foul and was ejected.[197] After the game, Howard, Spurs coach Gregg Popovich, and Mavs owner Mark Cuban all said the foul was committed without malice or intent to injure Anderson.[197] In the Mavericks' 10 playoff games, Howard totaled three double-doubles while averaging 13.4 points and 8.3 rebounds in 39.1 minutes.[103][195]
During the 2001–02 season, he posted 17 double-doubles and three 30-point performances in 81 games (72 starts),[198] while averaging 14.6 points and 7.6 rebounds.[103] This was the first time since his rookie holdout season that he did not start every game he played in.[103] All reserve appearances occurred between November 21 and December 11, and eight of them were in consecutive games between November 21 and December 5.[198] On January 31, he posted a career-high 16 rebounds against the Houston Rockets.[141]
Denver Nuggets (2002–2003)
The Mavericks traded him with Donnell Harvey, Hardaway and a 2002 first-round pick to the Denver Nuggets for Raef LaFrentz, Avery Johnson, Van Exel and Tariq Abdul-Wahad on February 21, 2002.[103][199] At the time of the trade, Howard was considered the Mavericks' best low-post defender.[200] On March 25, 2002, he scored his 10,000th career point at Madison Square Garden against the New York Knicks.[201] Howard started all 28 games that he played for the Nuggets.[198] Don Nelson's Mavericks went to the second round of the 2002 NBA Playoffs after trading Howard,[202] while the Nuggets failed to make the playoffs under coaches Dan Issel and Mike Evans.[203] By the end of the season, Nuggets general manager Vandeweghe had cleared almost $20 million of salary cap space, leaving the team with few veterans and only Howard and Marcus Camby as well-known players. This made the team an undesirable coaching assignment for veteran coaches.[204] In the offseason, the Nuggets replaced Evans with the relatively unknown Jeff Bzdelik.[204]
During a preseason game, Howard attempted to punch Al Harrington and Jermaine O'Neal, which earned him a suspension on October 25, 2002. As a result, Howard missed the Nuggets' first two games of the regular season, and this cost him $458,000 in salary.[205] Howard first attempted to hit Harrington late in the fourth quarter on a night when Howard had missed nine of ten shots. When O'Neal intervened, the two pushed and shoved each other before Howard started punching again.[206] At around the same time, the University of Michigan basketball scandal investigation came to an end with many of the accomplishments of the Fab Five being rescinded through National Collegiate Athletic Association sanctions.[207] Although many of the records of the Fab Five were erased, Howard's and teammate Rose's 1994 All-American recognitions were unaffected by the scandal.[63][208] During the 2002–03 regular season, he accumulated 18 double-doubles, two 30-point performances, and three 15-rebound performances in 77 games,[209] while averaging 18.4 points and 7.6 rebounds.[103] The 2002–03 Nuggets were 17–65 under Bzdelik.[210] The team struggled with the league's lowest payroll and three rookies in the starting lineup.[204] Howard started all 77 games in which he played.[209]
Orlando Magic (2003–2004)
Howard signed what was believed to be a five-year, $28 million contract as a free agent with the Orlando Magic on July 16, 2003; he had been expected to sign with either Detroit or Minnesota.[103][211] During the season, teammate Tracy McGrady successfully defended his scoring championship,[212] while Howard attempted to be a positive influence when the situation arose, such as when he attempted to stop McGrady from kicking the basketball into the stands twice in a row.[213] McGrady missed the last 10 games of the season with knee problems (ending his season on March 24),[214] leading to Howard's best performances of the season: Howard had 33 points and 11 rebounds on April 2 against the Atlanta Hawks,[215] and he had 38 points on April 12 against the Chicago Bulls.[216] Over the course of the 2003–04 season, he had 16 double-doubles and two 30-point performances in 81 games (77 starts),[217] while averaging 17.2 points and 7.1 rebounds.[103] The team compiled a 21–61 record, the worst in the NBA, under coaches Doc Rivers and Johnny Davis.[218][219]
Houston Rockets (2004–07)
On June 29, 2004, Howard and Magic teammates McGrady, Tyronn Lue and Reece Gaines were part of a seven-player trade that sent 2003–04 Houston Rockets starting guards Steve Francis and Cuttino Mobley, plus Kelvin Cato, to the Magic.[103][220] In late November, as a short term experiment,[221] head coach Jeff Van Gundy decided to reduce Howard's playing time so that Scott Padgett could move up in the rotation to backup power forward.[222] Meanwhile, Maurice Taylor started the first 16 games of the season for the Rockets at power forward.[223] Van Gundy was unsatisfied with his power forward rotation, so he made the first starting lineup change of the season not mandated by injury by putting Howard into the starting lineup ahead of Taylor.[224] Although Taylor was available and played,[225] Howard became the regular starter on December 2 and started for the rest of the season,[226] and the team traded Taylor before the trade deadline in February.[227]
The 2004–05 Rockets were 51–31 under Van Gundy and lost in the first round of the 2005 NBA Playoffs to the Dallas Mavericks, four games to three.[228] Although the Rockets made the playoffs, Howard's season ended on March 14, when he left a game with a sprained medial collateral ligament (MCL) in his right knee.[226][229] Initially, the injury was supposed to sideline Howard for four weeks.[230] The injury coincided with a period in which he developed symptoms of viral myocarditis, including heart palpitations, mild chest pains and fever and was diagnosed with a viral infection in his heart. His limited physical activity impaired his MCL rehabilitation.[231] Over the course of the 2004–05 season, Howard achieved seven double-doubles in 61 games (47 starts),[226] while averaging 9.6 points and 5.7 rebounds.[103] His 26.6 minutes per game marked the first season that he played less than 32 minutes per game.[103]
During the 2005–06 season, Howard recorded 10 double-doubles and two 30-point performances in 80 games (all as a starter),[232] while averaging 11.8 points and 6.7 rebounds.[103] He played 31.7 minutes per game, and this was the last season in which he averaged 30 minutes per game; this was also the final season in which Howard started at least half of the games in which he played.[103] The Rockets were 34–48 under Van Gundy and missed the playoffs.[233] Howard was suspended one game without pay in January for shoving the basketball into the face of Toronto guard Mike James in an exchange that occurred after Howard fouled James on a drive to the basket.[234] On April 10, Yao Ming suffered a season-ending broken foot.[235] In Yao's absence, Howard posted a season-high 31 points on April 17 against the Denver Nuggets.[236]
In the 2006–07 season, Howard achieved nine double-doubles in 80 games played (37 starts),[237] while averaging 9.7 points and 5.9 rebounds.[238] During the season, he lost the starting power forward position to Chuck Hayes, but got back in the starting lineup when Yao got injured.[239] His 26.5 minutes per game marked a new career low.[103] Howard only started 38 games,[238] including 32 consecutive starts between December 26, 2006, and March 3, 2007,[237] while center Yao was recovering from his fractured right leg.[240][241] The 2006–07 Rockets were 52–30 under Van Gundy for the regular season.[242] The Rockets entered the 2007 NBA Playoffs with little experience; Howard was one of only three players on the team (along with Rafer Alston and Dikembe Mutombo) to have previously won any NBA playoff series.[243] Once the playoffs began, Howard served as a key reserve on the Rockets' short bench rotation that also included Luther Head and Mutombo.[244] The Rockets managed to split the first 4 games even though Head and Howard only combined to average 7.6 points,[245][246] including a combined pointless 0-for-10 game three.[247] Although Howard had a productive game five with 12 points and 6 rebounds which contributed to a Rockets victory,[248] the team lost in the first round of the 2007 playoffs to the Utah Jazz, four games to three.[242] In the playoffs, reserve Howard averaged 5.0 points and 4.4 rebounds in 22.4 minutes.[103][237] Although Howard was described as a consistent role player and locker-room leader,[249] his salary continued to be perceived as outrageous by sportswriters such as the Houston Chronicle's Jerome Solomon.[250]
On June 14, 2007, Howard was traded to the Minnesota Timberwolves for James and Justin Reed.[251] According to ESPN, he regretted not choosing Minnesota the last time he had been a free agent and was looking forward to playing with Garnett.[252] Soon after Howard signed with Minnesota, the team traded Garnett to the Boston Celtics.[253] Howard made it clear he was not interested in being on a team in Minnesota that was focused on developing young talent and consequently requested a trade once Garnett was no longer a member of the team.[252][254] Howard still had $6.88 million and $7.38 million in salary owed to him over the next two seasons, which made him difficult to trade.[252] Timberwolves owner Glen Taylor noted that the team would attempt to accommodate his wishes but acknowledged that doing so would be difficult.[255] On October 29, 2007, the Timberwolves waived Howard after agreeing to a contractual buyout agreement[256] worth $10 million spread over four years instead of the roughly $14.25 million ($6.88 million plus $7.38 million) that Minnesota would otherwise have owed him.[257]
Return To Dallas Mavericks (2007–2008)
Howard agreed to terms with the Dallas Mavericks on October 30, 2007, but was not able to officially sign until the next day, when he cleared waivers.[258][259] Terms of the deal were not disclosed publicly. During the 2007–08 season, he played in 50 games and made no starts,[260] while averaging 1.1 points and 1.6 rebounds.[103] In his limited role he never played more than 18 minutes and had season-highs of seven rebounds and six points.[260] The 2007–08 Mavericks were 51–31 under coach Johnson and lost in the first round of the 2008 NBA Playoffs to the New Orleans Hornets four games to one.[261] In the playoffs, Howard only appeared for a total of 11 minutes in three games.[103] This was the first season in Howard's career in which he did not start in a single game.[103]
Return To Denver Nuggets (2008)
On October 3, 2008,[103] Howard rejoined the Denver Nuggets, but was later released when the Nuggets made a three-for-one trade of Allen Iverson for Chauncey Billups, Antonio McDyess and Cheikh Samb on November 3 that put them over the 15-man roster size limit.[262] When he was waived, Howard was the only player on the Nuggets' roster without a guaranteed contract.[263] Before the trade, Howard had played in three games during the 2008–09 season. His appearances had all come from off the bench and lasted between 7 and 8 minutes.[264] After Howard departed, the Nuggets went on to post a 54–28 record and reach the Western Conference finals under George Karl.[265]
Charlotte Bobcats (2008–2009)
On December 12, 2008, he was signed by the Charlotte Bobcats.[266] During the 2008–09 season, he played in 42 games, making two starts;[264] Howard averaged 4.1 points and 1.8 rebounds.[103] In his reserve role, he played more than 20 minutes five times, including four straight appearances from January 28 to February 8, and had season-highs of five rebounds and 14 points. He posted 10 or more points five times.[264] Howard played extended minutes on January 28, the night after Gerald Wallace suffered a left-lung collapse and a non-displaced fracture of the fifth rib from a flagrant foul by Andrew Bynum; in 24 minutes of action, he scored 9 points.[267][268][269] During Howard's streak of 20-minute appearances,[264] he sat out one intervening game on February 6 with a toe injury.[270] On February 8, in only his second start as a Bobcat, he played a season-high 30 minutes, 39 seconds and posted a season-high 14 points.[264] The subsequent night, Howard was out of the lineup again with a toe injury.[271] The 2008–09 Bobcats were 35–47 under coach Larry Brown.[272]
Portland Trail Blazers (2009–2010)
On September 17, 2009, Howard signed a one-year contract with the Portland Trail Blazers.[273][274] On December 22, center Joel Przybilla injured his knee in the first quarter, allowing Howard to play additional minutes,[275] which allowed Howard his first double-double since April 6, 2007.[275] He had his other double-double of the 2009–10 season the next night when he made his first start of the season.[260] All of Howard's performances with 10 rebounds or more occurred between December 22 and February 3. December 23 marked the start of 14 consecutive starting appearances and 24 starts in 26 appearances (ending on February 16) for him.[276] Having lost Przybilla and Greg Oden for the season, Portland acquired Camby from the Los Angeles Clippers for Steve Blake and Travis Outlaw on February 17 prior to the trade deadline.[277] During the 2009–10 season, he accumulated two double-doubles, played in 73 games, and made 27 starts,[276] while averaging 6.0 points and 4.6 rebounds.[141] The 2009–10 Trail Blazers were 50–32 under coach Nate McMillan and lost in the first round of the 2010 NBA Playoffs to the Phoenix Suns, four games to two.[278] Howard appeared in all six games, averaging 3.3 points and 2.7 rebounds in 14.5 minutes.[103] He played the most minutes (17:51) in game 4,[276] when he added 8 points and 7 rebounds to help even the series.[279]
Miami Heat (2010–2013)
On July 20, 2010, Howard came to terms for the 2010–11 NBA season with the Miami Heat on a one-year contract for the veteran's minimum salary, which was $1,352,181.[103][280][281] Although he was only paid the minimum by the Heat, he was in the final year of his four-year buyout from the Timberwolves.[257] By joining the Heat, Howard joined a team that by the time of the 2011 NBA playoffs, included former champion Dwyane Wade as well as a group of players such as LeBron James and Chris Bosh.[282] In March, he was featured in the documentary film The Fab Five, which was about his time as a Wolverine, that reignited controversy and reinvigorated the Duke–Michigan basketball rivalry.[283] On March 31, Howard was fined $35,000 for escalating an altercation the night before. Howard was ejected for pushing JaVale McGee, who was attempting to break up a dispute between Zydrunas Ilgauskas and John Wall.[284][285] For the season, Howard played 57 games for the 2010–11 Heat, all as a reserve. He averaged 2.4 points and 2.1 rebounds with season highs of 18 points and 7 rebounds.[286] The Heat reached the NBA Finals, losing to the Dallas Mavericks four games to two.[287][288] Howard averaged 1.5 points and .9 rebounds per game during the postseason.[103]
On December 10, 2011, Howard re-signed with the Heat for the same veteran's minimum salary as the year before.[289][290] Howard appeared in 28 regular season games as a reserve with limited minutes.[291] At age 39, Howard was the third-oldest active player in the league during the 2011–12 NBA season, behind Kurt Thomas and Grant Hill.[292] Before Game 4 of an 2012 NBA playoffs series against the Indiana Pacers, Howard engaged in pregame verbal sparring with Lance Stephenson after Stephenson mocked Howard's teammate James.[293] Despite this incident, Howard was a maturing influence on the team during the playoffs; according to David Neal of The Miami Herald, "More often, Howard stood as the body of reason — getting between Dwyane Wade and Spoelstra against Indiana in Game 3 of the second round, pulling Mario Chalmers away from Oklahoma City star Kevin Durant."[294] On June 21, 2012, Howard became the first and only member of the Fab Five to win an NBA championship, as a role player on the 2011–12 Miami Heat.[295] Howard was on the court as time expired in the series-clinching game because the three stars of the Heat (James, Wade and Bosh) had arranged it.[296] Howard spoke about representing the Fab Five after the Heat won the 2012 NBA Finals.[297] A teammate with the Heat was Shane Battier, who grew up in Detroit as a fan of the Fab Five and idolized Howard. In his early teens, Battier sought Howard's autograph on a pair of sneakers and a few years later became a part of the Duke–Michigan basketball rivalry when he turned down the local scholarship offer from Michigan to play for Duke Blue Devils men's basketball.[298] Following the season, Howard became an unrestricted free agent.[299] At the 20th annual ESPY Awards, Howard and Heat teammate Mike Miller took to the stage to accept the award for Team of the Year.[300]
On February 21, 2013, the Heat traded Dexter Pittman to create space on the roster to pursue a more experienced big man.[301] On March 2, 2013, Howard signed a 10-day contract with the 2012–13 Miami Heat.[302][303] On March 12, 2013, he signed a second 10-day contract with the Heat,[304] and on March 22, 2013, he was signed for the remainder of the season.[305] He made his first appearance of the season for the Heat on March 24 against the Charlotte Bobcats tallying two points, a rebound and two assists in three minutes of play as the Heat made their way to their 26th consecutive victory.[306][307] On April 15, he made his first start since April 14, 2010 as the Heat defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers without James, Wade, Bosh, Battier, Chalmers and Udonis Haslem in the penultimate game of the regular season.[308] Howard's April 17 start in the season finale against the Orlando Magic marked Howard's 900th career start.[309] On May 30, during halftime of game 5 of the Eastern Conference championship against the Indiana Pacers, Howard delivered a passionate speech that fired up the team in its clinching game.[310][311] With the retirement of Grant Hill on June 1, 2013, Howard became the oldest active player in the NBA at age 40.[312] During the playoffs, Howard did not play, but he served as a quasi-assistant coach.[311][313]
Perfil del jugador
In college, Howard was regarded as one of the best defensive big men in the country.[65] According to Mariotti, he was also regarded as a "rock-solid" power forward who provided rebounds and defense, in contrast to his flamboyant teammate Webber.[314] Fisher referred to Howard as his "Rock of Gibraltar".[97] His consistency was described by Chicago Tribune journalist Skip Myslenski as Michigan's "ballast, steadying them on those many occasions when they wavered. And their savior, rescuing them from their many follies".[97]
After the 1994 draft, NBA analyst Doug Collins described Howard as a player who could "play with his back to the basket" and "shoot from about 16 feet outside" and who played "with a lot of energy and emotion".[21] The Bullets' general manager, John Nash, who was disappointed that Jason Kidd was no longer available at the fifth pick of the draft,[7] told Jerry Bembry of The Baltimore Sun that Howard was "as fundamentally sound as any player in the draft" and that he "[had] a discipline about his game and [used] a high level of skill and technique". Bembry said, "Not only can Howard post up, he passes effectively and is able to hit a jumper up to 17 feet", adding that he also was "an excellent position defender".[315] Later Bembry noted that he was a power forward who was able to play center, adding that at Michigan he was "most effective playing with his back to the basket" but could also pass effectively and hit medium-range jumpers.[316] The Bullets' head coach, Jim Lynam, described Howard as a "complete player" and noted, "[H]e can defend you and he can score over you".[317] Nash said that "the things that impressed me most about him were his character, his intelligence and his insight. He's a leader type."[318]
When he first became a free agent in 1996, Howard was described as versatile enough to play all three front-line positions (small forward, power forward and center), and Michael Jordan praised his "game, work ethic and character".[319] As a Dallas player in 2000–01, he was still regarded as a versatile offensive player who could "take advantage of smaller defenders in the paint and then stretch his bigger defenders outside" in addition to being a solid rebounder.[194] By 2001, Lacy J. Banks from the Chicago Sun-Times regarded him as a high-priced, under-achieving player,[320] but in 2002, Banks described him as a solid veteran at the four (power forward position).[321] In the NBA, Howard developed a respected inside post-up game and a reputation as a veteran leader, according to Kiki Vandeweghe, the general manager of the Denver Nuggets, Howard's team in 2003.[322]
When he signed with the Heat in 2010, Howard was lauded for his ability to play the power forward and center positions and for his professionalism.[323] Howard also added frontcourt toughness.[324] As an elder statesman with the Heat, he was regarded as a future NBA coach or general manager.[325]
Carrera de entrenador
On September 28, 2013, the Heat announced a reshuffling of their organization. The reshuffling included the announcement that Howard would remain with the Heat, moving officially into an assistant coaching role. The assistant coaching position was available after both Chad Kammerer and Keith Askins were moved from coaching to scouting positions.[326] This effectively indicated Howard's retirement as a basketball player, as league regulations prohibit one from holding a coaching position while being an active player.[327]
Michigan
On May 22, 2019, Howard was named the head coach of the Michigan Wolverines men's basketball team,[328] signing a five-year contract.[329] In 2021, after guiding the Wolverines to a 14–3 Big Ten record and their first Big Ten regular season title in seven years, Howard was named the Big Ten Conference Coach of the Year, Sporting News Coach of the Year, and Associated Press College Basketball Coach of the Year, and awarded the Henry Iba Award by the USBWA.[330][331][332][333][334] Michigan was named a No. 1 seed in the 2021 NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Tournament, making Howard the first person in NCAA history to enter the tournament as a No. 1 seed as both a player and a coach.[335]
Vida personal
Howard remained a Chicago resident throughout his NBA playing career. In 1996, he bought a 3,116-square-foot (289.5 m2) town home for $490,000 in the River North area.[336] In 2009, he paid $2.55 million for a three-bedroom, 3,080-square-foot (286.1 m2) unit in the Trump International Hotel & Tower.[336] In 2005, Howard bought a 3.5-acre (14,000 m2) $11.775 million property in South Florida's Gables Estates, where he intended to build a 15,000-square-foot (1,400 m2) home, with a dock for a newly purchased 54-foot (16 m) yacht named the Fab 5.[337] After the Heat won the 2012 NBA championship, Howard sold the home within a week for about $10 million, but he continued to own at least one South Florida real estate property.[338]
Howard has six children with four different women. One of Howard's children, son Juwan Howard Jr. (born February 5, 1992),[339] is the child of Markita Blyden, who was runner-up for Michigan's Miss Basketball when she and her twin sister led Detroit's Murray–Wright High School to the 1990 Class A state championship game. Howard, Jr. finished his senior season at Detroit's Pershing High School in spring 2010.[340] As a junior, he led his high school to the Michigan High School Athletic Association state championship. As a senior, he was named first team All-State by the Associated Press and Detroit Free Press.[339] He played his freshman season for the 2010–11 Western Michigan Broncos before he transferred to the University of Detroit Mercy Titans.[341] As a redshirt sophomore for the 2012–13 Detroit Titans, he became a regular starter and solid contributor.[342][343]
On July 6, 2002, Howard married Jenine Wardally. At the time, Howard was 29 and Wardally was 27. They have two sons: Jace, who was born in late September 2001,[344][345] and Jett, who is two years younger.[346] Jett plays high school basketball and holds multiple Division I recruitment offers. Jace committed to the University of Michigan on January 20, 2020 and currently plays under his father.[347]
Philanthropy
As a student athlete at the University of Michigan, Howard volunteered to visit patients at the University of Michigan Health System Hospitals in Ann Arbor, Michigan.[348] While juggling professional basketball duties and coursework as an NBA rookie/student-athlete, he continued to find time for charity work and hospital visits.[107] His humanitarian works included a Stay in School Jam for 6,500 local area students that he participated in along with several teammates and R&B artist Usher.[349]
Howard is active in fostering youth basketball activities through the Juwan Howard Foundation, which helps underprivileged youth in Washington, D.C. and Chicago. He was recognized in 2001 as one of the "Good Guys in Sports" by The Sporting News for his civic contributions.[350][351] In April 2010, Howard won the NBA Cares Community Assist Award for his community efforts, philanthropic work and charitable contributions.[352] He runs a yearly free basketball camp for youth, which is made possible by a partnership between the Juwan Howard Foundation and the Chicago Public Schools (CPS), Jordan Brand, Dell Computers, EMI Music, Vitamin Water and the NBA.[353] His foundation partners with the CPS for a reading challenge; the top 300 readers, out of 30,000 annually, attend his camp.[352] During and after his time as a member of the Heat, Howard was active in South Florida community outreach, fundraising and humanitarian efforts.[354][355][356]
Apariciones en cine y televisión
Howard appeared in the 1994 basketball film Hoop Dreams.[357] He had a small role in the television drama The West Wing, appearing in a 1999 episode as a former Duke basketball player who served on Josiah Bartlet's Council on Physical Fitness and helped him win a game against his staff.[358]
Other appearances include the August 15, 1999 "The Art of Give and Take" episode of Arli$$, the season 5 (2005) "Michigan's Fab 5" episode of Beyond the Glory, the November 9, 1996 season 2 "Son-in-Law" episode of Hang Time and the 2011 documentary The Fab Five, produced by his Michigan teammate Jalen Rose.[359][360] After his 18th season in the NBA, Howard worked with Rick Ross to produce a rap song entitled "It's Time to Ball" from an album Howard was working on entitled Full Court Press Volume 1.[361]
Howard most recently made a brief TV appearance in the pickup basketball game scene in Episode 8 of The Last Dance, a documentary about the 1997-1998 Chicago Bulls championship season.[362]

From the beginning, it was clear that the referees were going to call this heavyweight brawl closely. Too closely, Michigan might have thought. By halftime, Wolverines Chris Webber, Juwan Howard and Jimmy King each had two fouls, and Ray Jackson had three ... The game shifted when Howard and Webber drew their second fouls in a 64-second span midway through the first half. Howard's second came with 9 minutes 42 seconds until the break; Webber's with 8:38 left. After Webber's foul, Fisher replaced Howard with 7-footer Eric Riley. But Fisher couldn't afford to have both big men on the bench, so Webber had to begin playing cautiously.
