Howard fights through sore shoulder: Magic C Dwight Howard fouled out after only 17 minutes of play Tuesday at Detroit, struggling all night with a sore shoulder. He missed half of the third quarter after aggravating an injury sustained Sunday in Toronto, though he did return to foul out with 3:45 left. He finished with eight points and five rebounds. "It's just very, very sore, but it is hard when you get hit so hard every night," Howard said. "I'm a big guy, but it still hurts when I'm getting hit this much. It's getting worse, but I have to keep my composure and try not to complain. The last two games, though, I've been very close to going off."

Fantasy Analysis

Howard averaged 21.7 points, 16.0 rebounds and 2.3 blocks over his first three games, so the pounding he has taken didn't affect him until Tuesday. This shoulder soreness doesn't sound like anything that should sideline him, so keep him active as the top center in Fantasy and an elite source of points, rebounds and blocks.
