Willy Hernangomez has awesome quote about getting into it with Dwight Howard
Dwight Howard is one of the NBA’s most prominent players, an acclaimed and accomplished veteran star. Willy Hernangomez is a rookie Spanish center for the New York Knicks who is not at all intimidated by him.
In Sunday’s game, Hernangomez appeared to take a blow to the face from Howard. You might think a rookie might be intimidated by Howard’s physicality. Not this one.
Willy Hernangomez on Dwight Howard's cheap shot: "They told me about that but I didn't feel nothing. Maybe he felt pain in his elbow."

Howard has a history of this. We’re guessing, though, that few players have taken his hits as defiantly as Hernangomez did Sunday.
