Dwight Howard was recently approached about his perceived unwillingness to play with Derrick Rose and the Bulls.
"If I could play with Derrick right now and God wanted that to happen, it will happen," Howard told the Tribune. "It has nothing to do with me not wanting to play with Derrick Rose. I love him. That's my brother.''
Howard said their status as Adidas athletes is not a factor.
"It has nothing to do with Adidas," Howard said. "In fact, Adidas would love that because me and Derrick have the same guy."
