The deal has been worked out for Dwight Howard with the Houston Rockets and it includes some interesting tidbits. Read more after the jump.
Dwight Howard’s four-year, $88 million maximum contract agreement with the Houston Rockets will include an early termination option after the 2015-16 season and a 15 percent trade kicker.
The early termination clause – or opt-out – could make Howard a free agent again in ’16, allowing him to re-sign a five-year, maximum contract deal with the Rockets or change teams again. In the event Howard is traded during the duration of this contract, he will be paid 15 percent of the remaining money left on his deal through the kicker.
