SH Blog: Dwight Howard to Nets falls through, players officially sign
The Dwight Howard saga finally came to an end on Wednesday, at least for the Brooklyn Nets.

Hornets’ Jack has stress fracture, done for season
New Orleans Hornets starting point guard Jarrett Jack has a stress fracture in his right foot and will miss the rest of the season, the team announced Monday.
