It took four teams, 12 players and five draft picks to complete the deal, but the NBA trade involving Dwight Howard is now complete. He goes to the Los Angeles Lakers. Orlando also loses former Michigan State star Jason Richardson who goes to the Philadelphia 76ers. Howard thoeretically would be part of a starting lineup this fall that would list him Steve Nash, Kobe Bryant, Pau Gasol and Metta World Peace all on the court to begin games and make the Lakers solid NBA title contenders.
