Josh Howard is having a fantastic season. He’s averaging 19.5 points, 7.2 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.2 steals per game so far this season. He’s taken pressure off of Dirk Nowitzki and Jason Terry as he’s been a very reliable scorer, rebounder and shooter for the Mavs. He also gives a real solid effort on the defensive side of the court as he has the second most combined steals & blocks (82) on the team this season. He’s hit the second most three pointers on the Mavericks (he has more than Nowitzki) and he’s the third leading rebounder on the team. Howard is a big reason why the Mavericks have the best record in the Western Conference as of right now.
