Dwight Howard's 13 technical foul will stand as called, a league spokesman told the Orlando Sentinel.

Howard received the technical foul in the final seconds of Monday's loss to Memphis. Howard was speaking with referee Tony Brothers while Mike Conley was waiting to attempt free throws with 5.5 seconds remaining in the game when he was whistled for the technical by Brothers.

Howard didn't think the call should have been made.

"I know he wasn't demonstrative at all," Magic coach Van Gundy said afterward. "I know that there were however many people in the building who had no idea that anything was going on. You know, there's nothing we can do about it. He made the call."
