The Charlotte Hornets traded Howard to the Nets last month, before the once-promising big man sought to buy out his contract to become an unrestricted free agent, leading to his move to the Wizards.
Howard is expected to start for the Wizards, who traded Marcin Gortat to the Los Angeles Clippers for Austin Rivers.
