Dwight Howard is lucky.
According to TMZ, Howard was stopped at George Bush Airport in Houston on August 28th, after a TSA agent noticed he had a loaded gun in his carry on bag.
Law enforcement sources tell us … a further inspection revealed the gun — a Glock 26 9mm — was LOADED with one round in the chamber.
Texas gun laws saved Howard from being arrested, and after he had a friend come pick the weapon up, he was allowed to board his flight.
