Dwight Howard: The story behind my left hand

¹²³ · Feb 4, 2010

Dwight Howard blogs: "When I was growing up I was totally left-handed. I wrote left-handed, held a fork left-handed and shot the ball left-handed. But when I was in the eighth grade I tried to dunk on a guy and he undercut me and I landed on my left hand and broke my left wrist. After that, I taught myself to write with my right hand, eat right-handed and shoot the basketball with my right hand. Little did I know back then that something like hurting my wrist as a kid would help me as a NBA player. I made three straight left-handed hook shots on Tuesday against Milwaukee when the double-team came from the top side. Then, in the second half when they didn’t double team I could get to the middle of the lane and get to my right-handed hook shot."
