Juwan Antonio Howard ( / dʒ uː ˈ w ɑː n / joo- WAWN ) was born on February 7, 1973. He is an American professional basketball coach and former player. He currently works as an assistant coach for the Brooklyn Nets in the National Basketball Association (NBA). Before this, he was the head coach at the University of Michigan from 2019 to 2024. Howard played college basketball for the Michigan Wolverines as part of the Fab Five. He was chosen fifth overall in the 1994 NBA draft by the Washington Bullets. He played in the NBA for 19 years with eight different teams. He won two NBA championships with the Miami Heat and received All-Star and All-NBA honors while playing for the Bullets in 1996.
Howard was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois. He was a high school All-American center and an honors student at Chicago Vocational Career Academy. He became well-known after joining the Michigan Wolverines as part of the Fab Five recruiting class in 1991, which included future NBA players Jalen Rose and Chris Webber. He reached the finals of the NCAA tournament in 1992 and 1993. He was named a NCAA All-American in 1994.
Howard started his NBA career with the Washington Bullets after being selected in the first round of the 1994 draft. He played for the Bullets for seven seasons. Later, he played three seasons with the Houston Rockets (2004–2007) and three seasons with the Miami Heat (2010–2013). After retiring, he worked as an assistant coach for the Heat for six years before becoming the head coach at Michigan. He received awards for coaching the 2020–21 Wolverines, including Big Ten and National Coach of the Year. He was fired in 2024. Howard is the father of Jett Howard, who he coached at Michigan.
Early life
Howard was born on February 7, 1973. His grandmother on his father’s side, Jannie Mae Howard, was born to farm workers in Belzoni, Mississippi. By the age of 19, she had four daughters, including Howard’s mother, Helena. Helena was working at a restaurant in Chicago when she became pregnant with Juwan. Howard’s father, Leroy Watson, had recently returned from the Army and was working at a phone company in Chicago. The couple married quickly after Helena became pregnant. For the first week of Howard’s life, his mother, who was a junior in high school, kept him in a drawer at Jannie Mae’s house. Helena did not want to be restricted or have the responsibility of raising her child, so Jannie Mae adopted him. Howard’s biological father, Leroy Watson Jr., wanted to name him Leroy Watson III, but Jannie Mae refused and insisted on the name Juwan Antonio Howard. Although Helena visited Howard occasionally as he grew up, Jannie Mae raised him along with two cousins. Howard has no siblings and is not close to his biological parents; his grandmother was the most important person in his life. He lived with his grandmother in several low-income housing projects on Chicago’s South Side. She helped him avoid trouble and stay away from gangs. One of their homes was a three-bedroom apartment on 69th Street on the South Side of Chicago. Under his grandmother’s care and discipline, Howard became her “pride and joy.”
High school
Howard attended Chicago Vocational Career Academy, where he played three seasons of varsity basketball. The school’s gym was not heated, and there were no locker rooms, so the team had to dress for games in a history classroom. Despite these challenges, Howard was named a 1991 All-American basketball player by Parade magazine and earned McDonald's All-American honors. He was also a member of the National Honor Society and served as Vocational’s homecoming king. During college coach visits, including those by Illinois’ Lou Henson, DePaul’s Joey Meyer, and Michigan’s Steve Fisher, Howard’s mother, Jannie Mae Howard, asked most of the questions.
At the start of his sophomore year in 1988, Howard was 15 years old and expected to be a top recruit by 1991. He was considered one of the best sophomore basketball players in the Chicago area. He scored 26 points in a game against Simeon Career Academy, which was led by Deon Thomas. Vocational finished the season with a 23–7 record. Howard was named to the league coaches’ 20-man 1988–89 All-Public League team as a second-team selection and was the only sophomore on the list.
After his sophomore year, Howard attended the Nike Academic Betterment and Career Development (ABCD) camp in Princeton, New Jersey. At the camp, he played against Shawn Bradley, a much taller player who blocked his shots. Despite this, Howard proved he was one of the top junior big men in the country. He faced controversy when he received a second pair of sneakers, which he denied stealing. He was sent home early from the camp.
Howard also attended the Bill Cronauer camp in Rensselaer, Indiana, where more than 100 college coaches were present. He was ranked among the top 10 underclassmen in the country during the camp. His goal that summer was to surpass Deon Thomas, the reigning Chicago Tribune basketball player of the year, as the best big man in the state. By the time he finished college in 1994, Howard was drafted one round ahead of Thomas.
As a junior, Howard was listed by some sources as the best junior basketball player in Illinois, while others ranked Tom Kleinschmidt above him. He was interested in playing for DePaul or Illinois, partly because Thomas, whom he admired, had joined the 1989–90 Fighting Illini team. By the end of his junior year, Howard was named to the first-team All-Chicago Public School League, the Chicago Sun-Times All-Area team, and the Class-AA All-State team. He was considered the top junior in the Chicago area.
Howard was also an honors student. After his junior year, he was invited to the Nike All-American Camp in Princeton, joining other top players like Kleinschmidt, Donnie Boyce, and Glenn Robinson. At that time, Glenn Robinson was considered the best prospect in the Chicago area. Howard had ruled out DePaul because Deryl Cunningham, a potential influence, had transferred to Kansas State. He was considering schools like Michigan, Michigan State, Kentucky, Arizona, Dayton, Marquette, and Illinois. At the Nike camp, Howard was evaluated as the best senior basketball player, along with Chris Webber, Cherokee Parks, and Alan Henderson.
After being named MVP at the Boston Shootout and recognized as a top participant at the Nike camp, Howard was described as the best prospect in the country. He removed Michigan State and Illinois from his college list and began considering UNLV. His family received many calls from recruiters, so Howard asked coaches to contact his coach instead of his family. He said, “Contact my coach. I do not want my grandmother and aunt upset about calls at all times of the day and night. I’m not the only person who lives in this house. I think my wishes should be respected.” Talent scout Bob Gibbons believed Chris Webber and Glenn Robinson were equally talented. Despite Howard’s preferences and Illinois’s recruiting violations, the school continued to pursue him. By July 1990, Howard was expected to sign with Michigan.
During Michigan’s in-home visit, Howard’s grandmother hosted Michigan’s head coach, assistants, and others for a soul food dinner. Assistant coach Mike Boyd kept in regular contact with Howard. Howard grew close to assistant coach Donnie Kirskey, staying at his house and using his car after getting a driver’s license. During the summer 1990 30-day visitation period, Boyd watched Howard practice for 28 days straight. Boyd understood Howard’s relationship with his grandmother, who was a key influence in his life. He encouraged head coach Steve Fisher to hire Kirskey for a summer camp, which introduced Howard to Ann Arbor, Michigan.
Howard was president of Vocational’s Senior Boys’ Council. Before his senior season, he considered Arizona State and Michigan and made an official visit to Dayton. Despite a recruiting scandal, he visited Illinois unofficially, which had recruited four of the five previous Chicago Public School League Illinois Players of the Year. At the time of his decision, Howard was among the top five seniors in the country but did not hold a press conference to announce his choice. He signed with Michigan on November 2, 1990, a few hours before his grandmother passed away from a heart attack. He then moved in with his high school coach, Richard Cook.
During his senior season, Howard averaged 26.9 points, 8.4 rebounds, and 3.4 assists per game. He finished in the top 10 percent of his academic class. Vocational reached the Public League semifinals, where they lost to Westinghouse College Prep, ending the season with a 25–5 record. Howard befriended Jimmy King during a visit to Michigan, and King later chose to attend Michigan as well. Howard’s verbal commitment helped Michigan recover from a previous recruiting failure. With Jalen Rose, Chris Webber, Howard, and King, Michigan’s team became a strong group.
College career
Howard enrolled at the University of Michigan and joined other first-year students who played for the 1991–92 Michigan Wolverines. Together, they formed a group called the Fab Five. He also played with future NBA players Eric Riley and Rob Pelinka. On October 15, 1991, during Michigan’s Midnight Madness event, people talked about how at least four of the five freshmen might start playing before the season ended. (The five players combined played in 304 of 350 possible games during their first two seasons.) Early in his first year, Howard started in some games and sat on the bench in others for the highly ranked Wolverines. Over time, he earned a starting position from Riley. In Michigan’s first game against Illinois, Howard scored 13 points and limited Thomas to 8 shots by taking the ball away from him. His most important moment came when he grabbed a loose ball to force a jump ball with 16 seconds left in a game where Michigan led by only three points. In the Elite Eight round of the 1992 NCAA Division I men’s basketball tournament, Michigan faced Ohio State, a team led by Jimmy Jackson that had beaten them twice during the regular season by large margins. Michigan won the rematch, and the Fab Five scored all but two of the Wolverines’ points.
This victory earned the 24–8 Wolverines a spot in the Final Four, where they played against the 29–4 Cincinnati Bearcats, coached by Bob Huggins. Cincinnati averaged 83.6 points per game and had only lost to three teams, two of which had beaten Michigan. Nick Van Exel led Cincinnati in scoring during the tournament. Howard, King, and Riley shaved their heads for the game. Michigan won and faced Duke, a team that had beaten them by three points in overtime in December. In the first game against Duke, Howard scored only four points. Before the final game, he was averaging 11.2 points and 6.3 rebounds for the season. The day before the game, Howard had stomach cramps and a fever and received fluids to treat dehydration. Because of this, he was not required to attend mandatory media meetings. Howard played with Webber and Riley to guard Christian Laettner, the National Player of the Year. During Laettner’s first six possessions against Howard, Laettner missed a shot, turned the ball over, traveled, threw the ball away, and hit the backboard. Duke scored 23 points in its final 12 possessions of the championship game and won 71–51. Despite his condition, Howard scored 9 points in 29 minutes. Howard was known for his quick feet, understanding of basic skills, and strong moves near the basket, but also for his 1-to-2 assist-to-turnover ratio and a high number of fouls.
At the start of his sophomore year, reports said three Michigan basketball players were paid $300 each to play in a charity tournament during the off-season. Other reports said Howard and others attended summer basketball camps together, which might have broken NCAA rules. At the beginning of the 1992–93 season, Michigan returned its top nine scorers and was ranked number one in the country by the Associated Press. Michigan lost its second game of the season to Duke. Coach Fisher described Howard as the most consistent player on the team that year. During the season, Howard bought a million-dollar disability insurance policy approved by the NCAA for student-athletes expected to be high draft picks in the NBA, NFL, or MLB.
In the 1993 NCAA Division I men’s basketball tournament semifinals against Kentucky, Howard helped on offense and limited Jamal Mashburn defensively; Mashburn did not score in the last 12:36 of the game. Sportswriter Jay Mariotti wrote that Howard did “a terrific defensive job” in guarding Mashburn. The 31–4 Wolverines faced the 33–4 North Carolina Tar Heels in the championship game. Both coach Fisher and North Carolina coach Dean Smith were aiming for their second national title. During the game, Howard picked up his second personal foul with 9 minutes 42 seconds left in the first half and was soon substituted out as the team dealt with many fouls. The game became famous for a late technical foul against Webber for calling a timeout when the Wolverines had none left, leading to a Tar Heels victory. Howard averaged 14.6 points and 7.4 rebounds during the season. After the season, Webber and Howard were invited to try out for the United States national basketball team for the 1993 World University Games and Under-22 World Championships. Howard did not make the team.
After Webber left for the NBA, the 1993–94 Wolverines team started the season ranked fifth in the nation. Howard got a tattoo of “Jannie Mae” over his heart during Christmas break because his grandmother was born on December 25. During the season, Howard got chicken pox in January. Michigan finished the regular season with a 21–6 (13–4 Big Ten) record and tied with Purdue for the conference lead with one game left. Michigan lost to Northwestern and finished second in the Big Ten. Howard was selected as a first-team All-Big-Ten member along with teammates Rose, Purdue’s Robinson, Michigan State’s Shawn Respert, and Indiana’s Damon Bailey. In the 1994 NCAA Division I men’s basketball tournament, Howard helped Michigan win an overtime game against Pepperdine with 28 points and 9 rebounds before fouling out. In the second round, he scored 34 points and had 18 rebounds to lead Michigan to an 84–79 win over Texas. Michigan faced Maryland in the Sweet Sixteen, and Howard scored 24 points and had 11 rebounds before fouling out in a 78–71 victory. Howard earned the regional MVP award with 30 points and 13 rebounds in the Elite Eight round, despite collecting two fouls in the first two minutes, but lost to Arkansas, which had U.S. President Bill Clinton in attendance.
On April 18, Howard announced he would enter the 1994 NBA draft. The next day, Rose also announced he would enter the draft. Howard was 37 credit hours short of the University of Michigan’s degree requirements but said he intended to keep his promise to his grandmother to earn his diploma. Howard left Michigan after being named an Associated Press third-team All-American during his junior year and was selected fifth overall by the Washington Bullets in the 1994 NBA Draft. Howard was represented by David Falk.
Howard became the first NBA player to graduate with his academic class after entering the draft early, fulfilling a promise he made to his grandmother on the last day he saw her alive. He told Mitch Albom that when he reached the NBA, he realized how much free time multimillionaire players had and decided to use it productively instead of spending his money. “I knew if I kept pushing it off, I’d never get it done,” he said. He completed his final 32
Professional career
In the 1994–95 NBA season, players and team owners had not yet agreed on a new contract deal. Howard had not signed a contract two weeks before training camp began. He continued training in Chicago in late September while rumors spread that his draft rights might be traded to another team. During this time, it was reported that Howard could be part of a trade with the Chicago Bulls that included Calbert Cheaney and a first-round draft pick in exchange for Scottie Pippen. Another report suggested Howard might be traded with Rex Chapman and Don MacLean for Pippen. On November 9, Carlos Rogers, the 11th pick in the 1994 NBA draft, signed an NBA contract, making Howard the last first-round pick without a contract. Howard missed most of the first month of the season and stayed at a hotel near O'Hare Airport while long discussions continued. Howard’s agent, David Falk, said the main issue was that the Bullets wanted Howard to sign for a lower average salary than number six pick Sharone Wright. The Bullets offered a 10-year, $30 million contract ($65.2 million in 2025 dollars). On November 17, Howard signed a 12-year, $37.5 million contract ($81.5 million in 2025 dollars). Later, Sports Illustrated reported the deal was actually an 11-year, $36 million contract ($78.2 million in 2025 dollars). The contract had a clause that allowed Howard to leave under certain conditions. After signing, Howard joined his Michigan teammate Chris Webber on the Bullets. Webber had also missed training camp and the first eight games of the season and was traded to the Bullets on November 18 for Tom Gugliotta and three first-round draft choices.
After Webber joined the Bullets, many believed the two former Michigan players would help the team succeed under coach Lynam. The Bullets’ front line was expected to include Webber, Howard, and Kevin Duckworth, with 7-foot-7-inch (231 cm) Romanian center Gheorghe Mureșan coming off the bench. Players like Rex Chapman, Don MacLean, Calbert Cheaney, Mitchell Butler, and Scott Skiles were expected to provide strong outside play. Experts predicted the Bullets would compete for the Eastern Conference title. Howard and Webber’s debut against the Boston Celtics set new television ratings records for the Home Team Sports network. However, the early season trade caused confusion on the team because players were not familiar with each other, leading to communication problems. Howard eventually became a starter. As a power forward, he had strong performances after starting regularly. Howard participated in the February 11, 1995, NBA All-Star weekend events as part of the Rookie Challenge. He earned second-team All-Rookie honors at the end of the season. In February, he became the second Bullet (since 1981) and the first since 1982 to be named NBA Rookie of the Month. During that month, he averaged 20.1 points, 8 rebounds, and 1.2 blocks in 14 games, including his first two 30-point games. The following month, Howard suffered an ankle injury and missed 10 games (all losses for the Bullets). Over the season, he averaged 17.0 points per game and had 17 double-doubles in 65 games (52 starts). He scored 30 points or more three times.
At the end of his rookie season, Howard finished his undergraduate degree and graduated from the University of Michigan, becoming the first NBA player to graduate after leaving college early. In the preseason, the Bullets played the Detroit Pistons at the University of Michigan’s Crisler Arena, marking a homecoming for Howard. Webber missed the game due to a shoulder injury. Before the 1995–96 season, the Bullets were expected to be a contender with Webber, Howard, Mureșan, Mark Price, and Robert Pack. However, Webber, Price, and Pack missed most of the season due to injuries.
Howard earned his only NBA All-Star Game selection on February 11, 1996. He scored at least 20 points in his last 16 games of the season. Howard became the second player in Washington franchise history, after Bernard King, to score back-to-back 40-point games (40 points against Boston on April 17, 1996, and 42 points at Toronto on April 19, 1996). The 42 points were his career high. His strong finish earned him an NBA Player of the Month award for April. Despite injuries to key teammates, 1995–96 was Howard’s best season statistically. He finished third in the NBA in minutes played, sixth in points scored, and 10th in points per game (22.1). He was the Bullets’ leading scorer. Over the season, he had 22 double-doubles in 81 games, including 6 in his last 8 games. At the end of the season, he was named to the All-NBA team. In addition to his two 40-point games, he scored 30 or more points three other times and reached 20 points or more in 56 of 81 games. Averaging 22.1 points, 8.1 rebounds, and 4.4 assists, he helped the Bullets win 39 games. This was not enough for the Bullets to make the playoffs during their ninth consecutive losing season.
After averaging 17 points per game as a rookie and more than 22 per game in his second season, Howard became a free agent when the Bullets made salary cap changes. The Bullets offered Howard an $89 million contract, but the Miami Heat outbid them with a seven-year deal estimated to be worth $98 to $101 million. However, the NBA rejected the Heat’s contract because Howard’s $9 million for the 1996–97 season placed the team over the salary cap. Howard then re-signed with the Bullets on August 5. His seven-year contract was worth $105 million ($216 million in 2025 dollars), making him the first player in NBA history to sign a contract worth more than $100 million. The league ruled that the
Player profile
In college, Howard was considered one of the top defensive big men in the country. Mariotti described him as a "rock-solid" power forward who contributed rebounds and strong defense, unlike his more showy teammate Webber. Fisher called Howard his "Rock of Gibraltar." Chicago Tribune journalist Skip Myslenski noted that Howard helped keep Michigan's team steady during difficult moments and saved them from mistakes.
After the 1994 draft, NBA analyst Doug Collins said Howard could play with his back to the basket and shoot from about 16 feet away, showing energy and emotion in his play. John Nash, the Bullets' general manager, mentioned he was disappointed Jason Kidd was not available for the fifth draft pick but praised Howard as a player with strong fundamentals, discipline, and high skill. Jerry Bembry of The Baltimore Sun added that Howard could post up, pass well, and hit jumpers up to 17 feet. He also noted Howard was an excellent defender who could play both power forward and center positions. Jim Lynam, the Bullets' head coach, called Howard a "complete player" who could both defend and score effectively. Nash highlighted Howard's character, intelligence, and leadership qualities.
In 1996, when Howard became a free agent, he was described as versatile enough to play small forward, power forward, and center. Michael Jordan praised Howard's game, work ethic, and character. During the 2000–01 season with Dallas, Howard was still seen as a versatile offensive player who could outplay smaller defenders inside the paint and stretch bigger defenders outside the lane. He was also a strong rebounder. By 2001, Lacy J. Banks of the Chicago Sun-Times called Howard a high-priced but under-achieving player. However, by 2002, Banks described him as a reliable veteran at the power forward position. In the NBA, Howard developed a respected inside post-up game and became known as a veteran leader, according to Kiki Vandeweghe, the general manager of the Denver Nuggets, where Howard played in 2003.
When Howard signed with the Heat in 2010, he was praised for his ability to play power forward and center positions, as well as his professionalism. He added toughness to the frontcourt. As an experienced player with the Heat, he was seen as someone who might one day become an NBA coach or general manager.
Coaching career
On September 28, 2013, the Miami Heat announced changes in their team structure. Howard remained with the Heat but moved into an assistant coaching role. This position became available after Chad Kammerer and Keith Askins were moved to scouting positions. Howard’s move to coaching meant he was no longer an active player, as NBA rules do not allow players to coach while still playing. Howard worked as an assistant coach for six seasons with the Heat. In his first year, the Heat reached the 2014 NBA Finals, where they lost to the San Antonio Spurs in five games. The team made two more playoff appearances during Howard’s time as an assistant coach.
Howard coached several All-Star players during his time with the Heat, including LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh, Ray Allen, Jimmy Butler, and Bam Adebayo.
On May 22, 2019, Howard became the head coach of the University of Michigan’s men’s basketball team, signing a five-year contract. In his first season, he led the 2019–20 Wolverines to a 19–12 record before the Big Ten and NCAA tournaments were canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In his second season, he guided the 2020–21 Wolverines to a 14–3 conference record and their first Big Ten regular season title in seven years. Howard received multiple awards, including Big Ten Conference Coach of the Year, Sporting News Coach of the Year, AP Coach of the Year, and USBWA Coach of the Year. Michigan earned a No. 1 seed in the 2021 NCAA tournament, making Howard the first person in NCAA history to be a No. 1 seed as both a player and a coach. On November 16, 2021, Michigan signed Howard to a five-year contract extension through the 2025–26 season.
On February 20, 2022, Howard was involved in an altercation after a game against the Wisconsin Badgers. He struck Wisconsin’s assistant coach in the face after the assistant grabbed his arm. The next day, Howard was suspended for the rest of the regular season and fined $40,000 for violating the Big Ten Conference’s Sportsmanship Policy. He returned for the Big Ten Tournament and the NCAA tournament, where the 2021–22 Wolverines reached the Sweet Sixteen for the fifth consecutive year under Howard. The following season, Michigan finished 18–16 and missed the NCAA tournament, losing in the second round of the NIT. On March 15, 2024, after an 8–24 season and two consecutive years without an NCAA tournament appearance, Michigan announced they would no longer employ Howard. During his time at Michigan, the team had five NCAA tournament wins (in four seasons with an NCAA tournament) and an 87–72 overall record.
On April 26, 2024, Howard joined the Brooklyn Nets as an assistant coach for Jordi Fernández.
Personal life
Howard has six children. One of his children, Juwan Howard Jr. (born February 5, 1992), is the son of Markita Blyden. Markita was the runner-up for Michigan’s Miss Basketball when she and her twin sister led Detroit’s Murray–Wright High School to the 1990 Class A state championship game. Juwan Howard Jr. finished his senior season at Detroit’s Pershing High School in spring 2010. As a junior, he led his high school to the Michigan High School Athletic Association state championship. As a senior, he was named first team All-State by the Associated Press and the Detroit Free Press. He played his freshman season for the 2010–11 Western Michigan Broncos before transferring to the University of Detroit Mercy Titans. As a redshirt sophomore for the 2012–13 Detroit Titans, he became a regular starter and solid contributor.
On July 6, 2002, Howard married Jenine Wardally. They have two sons: Jace, born in late September 2001, and Jett, who is two years younger. Jace previously played under his father at the University of Michigan and now plays for the Fordham Rams. Jett played alongside his brother at Michigan until he was drafted to the Orlando Magic at pick #11 in 2023.
Howard is cousins with Angela Jackson, the mother of NBA athletes Jalen McDaniels and Jaden McDaniels. This makes Howard first cousins once removed with them, and his children second cousins with them.
As a student athlete at the University of Michigan, Howard volunteered to visit patients at the University of Michigan Health System Hospitals in Ann Arbor, Michigan. He continued to engage in charity work and hospital visits throughout his career, including a Stay in School Jam for 6,500 local area students that he participated in with several teammates and R&B artist Usher.
Howard was recognized in 2001 as one of the "Good Guys in Sports" by The Sporting News for his civic contributions. In 2010, he won the NBA Cares Community Assist Award for his community efforts, philanthropy, and charitable contributions. He runs a yearly free basketball camp for youth, supported by a partnership between the Juwan Howard Foundation, Chicago Public Schools (CPS), Jordan Brand, Dell Computers, EMI Music, Vitamin Water, and the NBA. His foundation partners with CPS for a reading challenge; the top 300 readers from 30,000 students each year attend his camp. During and after his time with the Heat, Howard was active in South Florida community outreach, fundraising, and humanitarian efforts.
Film and television appearances
Howard appeared in the 1994 basketball film Hoop Dreams. He had a small part in the TV show The West Wing, appearing in a 1999 episode as Rodney Grant, a former Duke basketball player who worked on Josiah Bartlet’s Council on Physical Fitness and helped him win a game against his staff.
Other appearances include the August 15, 1999, episode “The Art of Give and Take” of Arli$$, the season 5 (2005) episode “Michigan’s Fab 5” of Beyond the Glory, the November 9, 1996, season 2 episode “Son-in-Law” of Hang Time, and the 2011 documentary The Fab Five, produced by his Michigan teammate Jalen Rose. After his 18th season in the NBA, Howard worked with Rick Ross to create a rap song called “It’s Time to Ball” from an album Howard was making, titled Full Court Press Volume 1.
Howard most recently appeared briefly in a pickup basketball game scene in episode 8 of The Last Dance, a documentary about the 1997–98 Chicago Bulls’ championship season.
