Howard just finished a fishing trip with friends and according to Mark Medina of the LA Daily News, don’t look for forward Pau Gasol to talk to Howard about his free agency:
Pau Gasol said he hasn’t talked to Dwight Howard this offseason & won’t try to convince him to return: “He has to make the decision.”

Gasol, like everyone else on the Lakers, wants Howard back. But he wants to give him space out of respect for him

It’s not earth shattering news that Gasol wouldn’t talk to Howard about his free agency as it sounds like he isn’t close to making a decision. It’s been reported that Howard has narrowed his choices to remaining a Laker or moving to Houston, but unlike Kobe Bryant, Gasol won’t talk to Howard about his decision.
Similar to Howard, Gasol faces an uncertain summer as his name is sure to be mentioned in trade rumors as the Lakers look to shed salary so they don’t have to pay so much in luxury taxes.
