The NBA All-Star's teammates took to Twitter and Instagram to share photos of Howard's generous presents...

Although we’re not sure how many luxury timepieces Howard gifted, Aaron Brooks managed to snap several teammates in action opening their presents, captioning the photo above, “Santa aka @dwighthoward given out Rolex’s for Christmas…”

The Rockets’ shooting guard James Harden showed off his Audemars Piguet watch with the caption, “S/O to my guy!!!! @dwighthoward got me the AP I wanted for Christmas. That’s love bro.”

Meanwhile, forward Gregory Smith wrote, “Thanks to the big homie @dwighthoward man got ya boy his first Rolex!!! It’s woooo!”

Power forward Chandler Parsons kept things succinct, writing simply, “Thank you @DwightHoward” next to a picture of a new Rolex.

Omri Casspi and Donatas Motiejunas also shared photos of Rolex timepieces.

 

After starting his career with the Orlando Magic and the Los Angeles Lakers, Howard signed with the Houston Rockets in 2013. The NBA All-Star is the Rockets’ center/power forward, and made US$20.51 million in 2013.
