Howard will be the youngest NBA player on the squad. Players have to make a two-year commitment and play this summer in the World Championships. LeBron James of the Cleveland Cavaliers recently committed to playing. "They asked me last year . . . and I've said yes. I've been kind of keeping it to myself," said Howard, 20, the overall top pick in the 2004 NBA draft. "I'm really looking forward to it. Wow, to get to play in the Olympics? That's something I've always watched and wanted to do." And Howard hopes he can keep enjoying the Olympic experience and represent his country in 2012 and 2016. "I'm hoping I can play in a couple more after that [2008]," he said.</div> http://www.orlandosentinel.com/sports/loca...0,7972476.story
Nice!!! Get to see some Magic love in the Olympics, Dwight in '08 wow that is a good choice just think in that 2 years he could be averaging a 20,20.
I think dwight will be great for this team. He should do very well against the weaker european players. Dwight in 2 years = 20/20
I agree with you guys. By then, he has the chance to be one of the top players in the game and I wouldn't be suprised if he was filling up the stat sheet on a daily basis.
