“You and Kobe would’ve been a fantastic duo if you had played seriously you ruined the last years of his prime,” one NBA fan said in response to Howard’s post.
“Should of stayed in LA and figured it out with Kobe,” another fan added.
Howard averaged nearly 16 points per game and nearly 12 rebounds per game over the course of his NBA career. He’s played three separate stints with the Lakers, his last coming in 2021-2022.
