Dwight Howard’s All-Star Charity Game
Good news for Orlando basketball fans! Dwight Howard is hosting a charity basketball game at UCF arena on Sunday, November 13th. The event plans to bring together Orlando Magic players past and present with proceeds going towards “Plant Seeds, Cultivate Them, and Watch them Grow”, which supports youth education, health & activity, character development, and social responsibility around the globe.
Now that’s out of the way, here are the confirmed players for Sunday’s game:
- Dwight Howard (of course)
- Steve Francis (!)
- Penny Hardaway (!!)
- Vince Carter
- Gilbert Arenas
- Brandon Bass
- Trevor Ariza
- Carlos Arroyo
- Earl Clark
- Drew Gooden
- Rashard Lewis
- Mike Miller
- Chris Duhon
- Daniel Orton
- Jameer Nelson
- Ryan Anderson
- Jason Richardson
- Quentin Richardson
- DeShawn Stevenson
Dwight also invited Shaquille O’Neal, Courtney Lee, and a few others who have not yet confirmed. All in all, this is a pretty dream lineup and would be worth the admission just to see Penny Hardaway and Gilbert Arenas run the floor together. The only way this could get better is if Shaq confirms (potential Shaq and Penny reunion OMG) or if the Fat Shawn Kemp makes a surprise appearance.
