Dwight Howard parts ways with agent Dan Fegan
Agent Dan Fegan is finding it increasingly difficult to hold on to some of his major NBA clients these days.
Houston Rockets center Dwight Howard confirmed to USA Today Sports on Friday afternoon that he has decided to end his working relationship with Fegan. DeAndre Jordan of the Los Angeles Clippers and Washington Wizards All-Star John Wall have also recently cut ties with the Yale Law School alumnus.
"As I continue to embark on my NBA journey, I have to decided to sever my relationship with Dan Fegan and Relativity Sports," Howard said in an official statement to USA Today's Sam Amick. "I have the utmost respect for Dan, but this is the right decision for me. My sole focus remains working with my teammates to position the Rockets for a pursuit of a championship. I wish Dan and the team at Relativity all the best in the future."
Fegan released a statement days before the trade deadline denying any and all reports that Howard had been looking to be moved away from the Rockets, which the 30-year-old big man later confirmed.
Other players currently working with Fegan include DeMarcus Cousins, Chandler Parsons, and Ricky Rubio.
