Dwight Howard who currently plays as the center for Washington Wizards will probably be undergoing a surgery to get relief from a gluteal injury. Affected by the injury, he hasn’t been playing his natural game in the season lately.
Having intensified a piriformis muscle injury in the game against Portland in November this year, he was recommended by a nerve specialist in LA to undergo the surgical procedure. Howard hasn’t made the final call yet as he would then have to miss a significant portion of the regular season for the recovery. He has already missed 12 of the Wizard’s 21 games this season and the training camp as well.

The 32 year old has been an All-Star eight times & All-NBA player for five times. His journey has been going downhill from being a star to being a journeyman in the recent seasons. Besides, he has also switched teams in four consecutive years.
In his absence, Thomas Bryant has become his replacement in the Wizard’s lineup.
