Dwight Howard had his moment at Wednesday night’s ESPY Awards courtesy of host Jon Hamm.

The “Mad Men” star roasted the departing LA Lakers star during his opening monologue.

Said Hamm: “Dwight Howard recently announced he was leaving the Lakers to play for the Houston Rockets. He’s leaving L.A.; I guess it looks like he finally found a way to help the Lakers win.”

He then introduced a video montage in Howard’s honor, ostensibly to show his “greatest moments” during his year on the team.

But the crux of the video, which was set to Tina Turner’s “Simply the Best”, outright stated that Howard’s “best” moments were nil.

Come October, he’ll be playing with the Rockets on a four-year contract as a free agent.
