Watch Dwight Howard party as the sole attendee of an NBA bubble rave

In an effort to preserve the remainder of the NBA’s 2019 – 2020 season, many players have been relocated to a quarantined area in Orlando to limit the spread of COVID-19. Inside this “NBA Bubble,” players live in three separate hotels within Disney World, where they are provided with a variety of amenities and entertainment. In addition to the pool tables, video games, movies, and other attractions, the NBA promised players special, DJ-led parties. The first of these events just took place on July 11, where Miami’s own DJ Nasty delivered a momentous set to a big audience, but not the kind of audience that one might usually expect.

Standing tall at 6’11 and weighing in at a massive 265 pounds, Dwight Howard, the only attendee of the NBA Bubble’s debut DJ party, is certainly a “big” audience. In a live Instagram story that Howard shared while the show bumped on in the background, the notoriously high-spirited Lakers player paraded around the fully staffed, yet otherwise completely empty, venue. Howard gave viewers a tour of the area, speaking to the amused staff and showcasing the various games available to play, before eventually settling in at the bar with a “Cancun Colada.”

Teammate Anthony Davis explained why many players failed to show, stating,

“To be quite honest, the first time I heard of the DJ thing was today. Dwight told me he was the only one there. Quite frankly, a lot of guys just didn’t know about it.”

The ongoing pandemic has certainly created many surprises, but a two-person party featuring DJ Nasty and Dwight Howard in a quarantine bubble is not something anyone could have predicted.
