For some reason, the Orlando Magic decided it’d be a good idea to acknowledge their not-so-dearly departed former center, Dwight Howard, with a video tribute on the Amway Center Jumbotron. We hope you’re sitting down, but everyone in attendance immediately started booing. And kept on booing through player introductions.
We’re still not sure why the Magic showed the video tribute during this visit from the Houston Rockets, as Dwight had already returned to Orlando as a member of the Los Angeles Lakers. And Dwight was probably going to be the target of booing all night. Although, what better way to rile the crowd up than show a tribute to the least-liked Orlando athlete in recent memory.
