Lakers reach agreement to bring back Dwight Howard

, who worked his way up from the South Bay Lakers to become a key figure during the Lakers’ 2019-20 championship run, won’t be back. He agreed to a four-year, $37-million deal with the Chicago Bulls.

Howard, 35, also won a championship in 2020 during his second stint with the Lakers, playing with force and energy for the team, but he joined the Philadelphia 76ers last offseason. He averaged seven points and 8.4 rebounds in 17.3 minutes during 69 games in Philadelphia, in his 17th season in the NBA.

Ariza, who starred at UCLA and Westchester High, remains a very good defender and solid three-point shooter after 17 years in the NBA. He played for the Miami Heat last season, and the 6-foot-8 forward shot 35% from three-point range, averaged 9.4 points and played outstanding defense. Bazemore, who played for the Lakers during the 2013-14 season, also is known for his ability to play defense on the wing and to knock down three-pointers. He averaged 7.2 points and shot 40.8% from three-point range in 67 games with the Golden State Warriors last season.Portland kept former Laker Pau Gasol as an assistant coach after he injured his ankle. He still wanted to play, so he joined Spain’s Olympic team.

Who cares? Please show me in the constitution where it says I'm not allowed to kneel? Please show me where the troops demanded we stand. They didn't. The GOP loves freedom so much, yet they hate when others express their freedoms Because individuals acting free and not assimilating is anti American! Now we can bloviate for forty years of 'the miracle on the field'

Can this forgotten California beach ecosystem help slow the impacts of sea level rise?As sea levels rise, researchers are trying to bring back beach dunes and help buy communities a bit more time — before the ocean pushes inland and reclaims the land. A bit more time... Too bad people think slower than that. What will slow the disaster is a complete ban on fossil fuels and all subsidies going to oil/coal redirected to renewables. Our planet is burning. Is there any actual evidence that the sea level is rising, and it’s not just the ground sinking? Like in Venice.
