Dwight Howard has made an instant impact since joining the Atlanta Hawks this season.

The 6-foot-11 center is averaging a double-double 15.6 points and 13.0 rebounds per game. Howard had just seven points, he had 17 rebounds in Tuesday night's win over the Cavaliers.

Here are four Howard highlights from this season:

1. 'The block foul'

2. 'Schroder connects with Howard for an Alley-oop'

3. 'Sefolosha oop to Howard'

4. 'Howard hammers it home'

The 5-2 Hawks face the 4-3 Bulls tonight at Philips Arena.

So which play do you pick as his best in this short season?
