Juwan Howard to wear "Howard" and "55"

Let’s clear up any confusion right now: The back of Juwan Howard’s jersey is going to say “Howard” along with “55,” his new number. He wore “5” during his first swim through Dallas. There was some speculation that with Josh Howard on the team, the jerseys may read “Jo. Howard” and “Ju. Howard.”

Nope. Mavs PR guru Sarah Melton said the team checked with the league and all that’s required on the back of jerseys is the last name. I personally like the move. Who’s going to mistake Josh for Juwan? And they do wear different numbers. Josh, by the way, is No. 5.
