Dwight Howard has spent his entire career being mocked for his free-throw shooting, but the big man got a bit of revenge on Wednesday.
The Charlotte Hornets center was selected by Washington Wizards head coach Scott Brooks to go to the charity stripe on behalf of Michael Carter-Williams, who was ejected for his role in an altercation.
The 56.4 percent career free-throw shooter shook his head and sank both attempts, to the delight of the crowd. He wasn't done there, though, as he blew a kiss at Brooks and busted out the infamous Sam Cassell "Big Balls" dance on his way to the bench.
Howard finished with 18 points, 15 rebounds, two steals, and two blocks in 29 minutes. He'll almost certainly hear from the league office regarding the crude gesture, but it was probably worth it.
