Dwight Howard makes cameo appearance on ‘The Odd Couple’ (video)
By Andrew Ross
Houston Rockets center Dwight Howard might not be able to play basketball right now, so he is pursuing career in acting.
The first thing that comes to mind when you think of Dwight Howard might be a suit, and that’s because he has missed nearly the same amount of games that he has actually played this season.

Howard is currently on a stretch of missing 18 straight games (right knee injury) that goes all the way back to January 25th, and he also had a 11-game stretch from November-December where he had to sit out.
Reports have been that Howard is progressing well, but his return is still unknown.
Regardless of what he is dealing with that’s keeping him off of the field, it doesn’t look like anything is stopping him from being who he wants to be off the court.
On the most recent episode of The Odd Couple with Matthew Perry, Howard made a tiny cameo appearance to surprise someone at their birthday party.
I don’t think the Rockets need to be worried about Hollywood stealing their second-best player away from them.
In the games he has played in this year, Howard is averaging 16.3 points (58.0 percent shooting), 11.0 rebounds and 1.4 blocks.
Hopefully he can return to the court soon to help Houston make a deep playoff run.
