Source:Dwight Howard extension "all but signed"

[Mexi]

ORLANDO, Fla -- Magic center Dwight Howard spent the holiday weekend working on signing a two-year extension with the team, sources told Local 6 Sports Director David Pingalore late Monday.
Sources said the deal is all but signed by Howard. On Monday, Howard held an impromptu Memorial Day party for his Twitter followers and fans.
"I just got tired of everybody asking me 'Where am I gonna go? Are you going to stay? Everybody in Orlando is asking me'," Howard said. "So it was like, you know what? I want everybody to get their minds off something that is not gonna happen."
If Howard were to sign the extension, he would remain in an Orlando Magic uniform for four more seasons.

As far as the story goes, this sounds like "Melo to Nets all but done" all over again. That Local 6 station has never before broken a story about the Magic, so they're not exactly the top source until we get more info.

As Pugz said, we have LOTS of CAP space this summer. Hell, the Nets are probably two solid signings away from being a 4 seed.

i was being sarcastic about the second part, duh. but they arent that far off IMO. sure dwight would have been great, they have parts to build around. ive actually said this before, i didnt think they were actually as bad as their record has been the past two seasons.
