Dwight Howard

C, Los Angeles Lakers

Dwight Howard will move into the starting lineup for Game 4 against the Nuggets on Thursday.

JaVale McGee will move to the bench and could fall out of the rotation entirely, as he did when he was replaced in the starting lineup against Houston. Howard's played the better defense against Nikola Jokic through the first three games, and has done plenty of chirping as well. This was a move that the Lakers discussed prior to Game 2 but they ultimately kept the status quo. After one loss, they're making the change.
