Howard brings Lakers trainer to All-Star Game
Dwight Howard - C - Los Angeles Lakers
Feb. 14, 2013 - 2:35 PM ET

Dwight Howard (shoulder, back) will bring a Lakers trainer with him to Houston for the All-Star weekend.

The reason for bringing the trainer? Not his rehabbing back and injured shoulder, which fantasy owners wish he would use the break to rest. No, instead Howard said he's trying "to get into better shape." We can't remember a time when a player said they were going to the All-Star Game to get into shape, but maybe Howard will be the first.
