Orlando Magic star Dwight Howard recently revealed that when he was 15, he met Magic Johnson, who told him that he didn't have what it took to make it to the NBA.

 

"He said I was too skinny," Howard said. "Magic inspired me by telling me I wasn't going to make it, that I was too little. I was in 10th grade when he told me I was too skinny to play in the NBA. I said, OK, we'll see."

Wow, what a huge surge of motivation for Dwight. Do you think this was Magic's intention?

I'm sure it was... there's no way he'd go up to a kid who can't even drive and honestly tell them they don't have a shot at their dreams haha
