(Video) Dwight Howard rejects Blake Griffin’s shot into the second row

Houston centre shows he is back to his best on the defensive end.

Did somebody say Defensive Player of the Year?

While the award has a long way to go before being decided, Dwight Howard is again showing he will be mentioned in the same sentence as other likely candidates.

Now he is apparently fit and happy with the Rockets, the dynamic centre shows what a handful he can be on the defensive end as he comes from the weak-side to help with this shot on Blake Griffin, as the ball sails into the second row for a lucky fan to throw back.
