PHOTO: Dwight Howard rides a camel

When Chandler Parsons left the Houston Rockets for the Dallas Mavericks last summer, he did so on a camel.

As it turns out, the Rockets have acquired said camel. Or maybe it was Parsons' camel all along, and he's shared it with friend and former teammate Dwight Howard.

In any case, Howard posted a photo to Instagram on Thursday, showing him riding a camel and having a blast. Howard is having the blast, that is. Sturdy though camels may be, no animal is going to be impressed with 275 pounds on their back.

This begs the question: Where was the camel emoji in the Twitter-transportation race to DeAndre Jordan this summer? Maybe that would have been the difference.
