As the offseason winds down, the Golden State Warriors have been busy. With a couple of roster spots open, the Warriors have been working out veterans as Mike Dunleavy Jr. and Steve Kerr decide how to handle the reserve end of the depth chart.
The next player reportedly slated to come to the Bay Area is a former champion and eight-time All-Star.

In 2022, Howard joined the Taoyuan Leopards of the T1 League in Taiwan. Prior to his time overseas, Howard played 18 seasons in the NBA. During the 2021-22 season, Howard played in 60 games with the Los Angeles Lakers. Howard averaged 6.2 points on 61.2% shooting from the field with 5.9 rebounds in 16.2 minutes per contest.
Howard is an eight-time All-Star, five-time rebound league leader, two-time block league leader, five-time All-Defesive team member and NBA champion from 2020 with the Lakers.
If he signs with the Warriors, Howard would give Kerr some flexibility in the frontcourt alongside Kevon Looney, Draymond Green and Dario Saric.
