Dwight Howard and Brandon Jennings are not quite ready to lead a laid-back, leisurely life. While the duo has retired from the NBA, the zeal to succeed seems to be still burning inside of them. In a recent intense banter, the duo took some brutal shots at each other debating over a possible 1v1 showdown.
Howard and Jennings appeared on the recent episode of Gil’s Arena Show. Midway through the show, the former Bucks and Lakers icons decided to flex their NBA muscle. Jennings initially started the banter by mentioning that he would easily beat Howard in a 1v1 matchup, which did not sit well with the 2020 NBA champion.
Howard immediately pointed to the fact that he won the NBA Defensive Player of the Year award three times. Thus, there was no possibility that Jennings would ever beat him. Boasting his NBA accolades, Howard said, “How you gonna stop me?! I got 3 DPOY awards! I’m locking you up.”
Jennings, however, seemed unfazed by the daunting flex from Dwight Howard. He immediately teased by saying, “I’ve scored a lot of buckets over there.” And the back and forth did not just end there. The duo went on for quite a few seconds trying to prove their dominance over the other one. Unfortunately, at the end of the debate, there were no definitive winners. Well, this was not the only instance of Dwight Howard’s hilarious shenanigans. He recently mocked Kevin Durant.
