Dwight Howard

Posted by: Bradley McDonald

Here's an article about Dwight Howard, the number one overall pick of the Orlando Magic in the NBA draft this past year who went pro directly out of high school. Howard not only wants to change the NBA by the way he plays, he wants to change it by being a Christian. The article brings up some questions on whether his religious fervor will be good or bad for marketing purposes. I think to get an answer to that question you need not look any further than this past election. A majority of the people said that moral issues played the most significant role in electing a president. People are ready to have wholesome, honest guys to admire, so Howard should not have a problem with endorsement deals as long as his game lives up to it's potential.
