With the all the talk on whether or not Dwight Howard will remain with the Los Angeles Lakers, many have speculated, but there's just one who thinks the decision is a no brainer.
According to the Los Angeles Times, Lakers guard Kobe Bryant hasn't shown much concern on whether or not he believes Howard will re-sign because to him it makes the most sense form a "business standpoint."
"I think Los Angeles is the perfect spot for him to assert himself, kind of put his foot down and have his career really take off and be what it should be. There's no greater place for centers to play than here in Los Angeles," he said.
"From a business standpoint it makes more sense, both contractually and also perception-wise. A lot of things go well for you if you win here."
Howard made his seventh All-Star appearance this season, but his 17.1 points per game were his lowest average since his second season in the league, his 12.4 rebounds were his lowest since his third season, and his 49.2 percent mark from the foul line represented the second straight season he's shot less than 50 percent from the charity stripe.
Once he becomes a free agent this offseason, Howard can sign a five-year, $118 million contract to stay with the Lakers, or a four-year, $87.6 million deal with another team.
