Fri Jan 6 202320:50Clint Capela Misses A Sixth Consecutive Game
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (calf) will remain on the shelf for Friday's battle with the Lakers, missing a sixth consecutive game. He is working his way back from a right calf strain and will get the next chance to return Sunday against the Clippers. Capela's absence has given a big boost to Onyeka Okongwu's fantasy stock. He's moved to the starting unit and it's helped Okongwu to produce a pair of big double-doubles. The 22-year-old has averaged 10.6 points and 9.1 rebounds with 2.2 in 10 total starts this season.

Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (calf) won't play on Wednesday night against Sacramento, marking his fifth consecutive absence. The 28-year-old continues to be bothered by a right calf strain, so his next chance to get back on the floor will come on Friday versus the Lakers. In the meantime, Onyeka Okongwu, who's averaged 10.3 points, 9.0 rebounds, and 2.3 blocks in eight starts this season, should remain in the first five.

Tue Jan 3 202321:31Clint Capela To Remain Sidelined Against Kings
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (calf) will not play Wednesday against the Sacramento Kings. Capela will miss his fifth-straight game due to a calf injury and does not appear close to returning to the court. Onyeka Okongwu is a must-roster player while Capela remains out. Jalen Johnson should operate as the backup center, but does not offer much fantasy value right now.

Mon Jan 2 202313:31Clint Capela Ruled Out For Monday
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (calf) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Golden State Warriors. The big man has missed seven of the last nine games while he deals with a lingering calf issue. Onyeka Okongwu has started in his place and is actually playing pretty well as the starter. He's averaging 12.2 points, 9.4 rebounds and 2.0 blocks during his short stint as the starter. That being said, Okongwu is worth holding in fantasy leagues while Capela is on the sideline.

Thu Dec 29 202222:04Clint Capela To Sit Out Friday
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (calf) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. This marks the third game in a row that Capela has missed due to a right calf sprain. Onyeka Okongwu should continue to start in the absence of Capela. He registered 18 points, 13 rebounds, and three blocks on Wednesday. It sounds like Okongwu is a decent streaming option while Capela is on the sideline. Fantasy managers should check the waiver wire to see if he's available.

Wed Dec 28 202218:30Clint Capela Will Sit Against Nets
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (calf) will not play Wednesday against the Brooklyn Nets. Capela will miss both legs of a back-to-back set with the calf strain and has been a staple on the injury report all year. Onyeka Okongwu figures to continue starting and should be on fantasy rosters in all standard leagues due to Capela's questionable health. The Hawks play again on Friday and Capela is looking to be questionable for that one.

Tue Dec 27 202217:13Clint Capela Still Sidelined On Tuesday Against Pacers
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (calf) was officially listed as out of the team's game on Tuesday night against the Indiana Pacers. He returned from his previous injury back on December 23rd and was able to play 24 minutes in a win over the Detroit Pistons. He must have picked up a calf strain in that game and now he'll be forced to miss at least one game. In his absence, Onyeka Okongwu will get most likely get the start and the bulk of the minutes at center as he usually does.

Fri Dec 23 202217:05Atlanta Upgrades Clint Capela To Questionable For Friday
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (calf) has been deemed questionable to play in Friday's contest vs. the Pistons as he works his way back from a right calf strain. Capela has missed three straight and four of Atlanta's last five games, allowing Onyeka Okongwu to take on a larger role in the frontcourt. Capela is one of four qualified players to average 12 boards per game thus far in 2022-23, as he has secured double-digit rebounds in 21 of his 26 appearances. The nature of his injury, along with over a week off of game action, likely means that Capela will face a minutes cap whenever he is green lighted to return.

Fri Dec 16 202214:47Clint Capela Out For 1-2 Weeks
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (calf) exited the team's last game on Wednesday with a left calf strain and it looks like he'll be out for an extended period because of it. He was officially ruled out for the next one to two weeks and should be re-evaluated at that time. In his absence, Onyeka Okongwu will likely step into the starting center role. He'll become a very good fantasy option over these next couple of weeks while John Collins (ankle) is also out of the starting frontcourt.

Wed Dec 14 202221:46Clint Capela Doubtful To Return On Wednesday
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (calf) is doubtful to return for Wednesday's game against the Orlando Magic. The big man walked back to the locker room with a team trainer with a few minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. There's a good chance that he's done for this game. The hope is that he'll be available for Friday's game, but that remains to be seen. Onyeka Okongwu would likely be asked to move into the starting five if Capela is unable to play. He'd be a decent streaming option if he's asked to start on Friday.

Mon Dec 12 202215:23Clint Capela Uncertain For Monday's Game
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (Achilles) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The big man has been on a tear lately with eight straight double-doubles. His absence would mean Onyeka Okongwu would start at center and see increased opportunities. Also, Frank Kaminsky would be the primary backup, but wouldn't be worth looking at as streaming option for Monday's slate. Fantasy managers should check back later on Monday for another update.

Thu Dec 1 202223:47Clint Capela May Not Play Versus Denver
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (foot) is questionable against the Nuggets. The 28-year-old recently missed two games because of dental pain, so if he's out on Friday night, Onyeka Okongwu should replace him in the rotation. While Okongwu isn't the most prolific scorer, he's averaged 7.5 rebounds, 2.0 blocks, and 1.5 steals in his two starts this season, giving him some value in all fantasy setups.

Mon Nov 28 202218:42Clint Capela, De'Andre Hunter To Play On Monday
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (mouth) and forward De'Andre Hunter (foot) will suit up for Monday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Earlier in the day, Capela was ruled out, but it sounds like he's made enough progress to play. He'll return from a two-game absence, which will move Onyeka Okongwu back to the bench. The Hawks can certainly use Capela's defense against Joel Embiid in this one. Fantasy managers should expect Hunter to play his normal role on Monday. It appears safe to get both players in your fantasy lineups for Monday's slate.

Sat Nov 26 202223:16Clint Capela Questionable Against Ailing Heat
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (dental pain) is questionable ahead of Sunday's meeting with the Heat. The 28-year-old didn't play on Friday against the Houston Rockets, opening the door for Onyeka Okongwu to finish with 11 rebounds, four points, two steals, and two blocks. While Okongwu won't offer much on the scoring end if Capela misses another one, category managers will benefit from his work on the glass and defensive end, even if it's only for one more game.

Sat Nov 26 202219:18Clint Capela Questionable For Sunday
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (mouth) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Miami Heat. The 28-year-old missed Friday's game due to what is being called dental pain. The team will likely wait and see how Capela feels before deciding if he'll play during Sunday's contest. Onyeka Okongwu replaced Capela in the starting five on Friday, but didn't have a great showing. He did record 11 rebounds and some nice defensive stats along the way. Okongwu could be a possible streaming option, assuming Capela does miss another game.

Fri Nov 25 202219:01Clint Capela Ruled Out On Friday
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (mouth) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Houston Rockets. The 28-year-old is reportedly dealing with dental pain, so he'll sit out this game. His absence will result in Onyeka Okongwu drawing a spot start on Friday. He'll be worth streaming in most formats and someone to consider in DFS contests. The Rockets are without their starting center, so this could be a good spot for Okongwu. He should get plenty of minutes and has a favorable matchup as well.

Tue Nov 15 202209:50Clint Capela Maintains His Double-Double Form
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela recorded his fourth consecutive double-double in Monday's 121-106 win over Milwaukee, scoring 19 points on 9-for-11 shooting and grabbing 10 rebounds. He also had a pair of blocks and swatted away two shots while posting one turnover in 30 minutes. Capela had a pretty slow start to the campaign, but he's certainly rolling now, having gone into double figures in rebounding in all of his seven appearances this month and registering five double-doubles. The run of good form has helped Capela to boost his numbers to 11.4 points and 11.9 rebounds for the season. As a center, Capela gets a couple of nice matchups to close out the week, with the team hosting Boston and Toronto. The Celtics are giving up the eight-most rebounds per 48 minutes to centers this season and opposing bigs are shooting over 61 percent against the Raptors, who are also struggling with injuries on their frontcourt.

Fri Nov 11 202209:46Clint Capela Posts Huge Double-Double
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela put together a big double-double against Joel Embiid and the Philadelphia 76ers. The 28-year-old big man registered 18 points and 20 rebounds while shooting 70% from the floor on Thursday night. Capela was never much of a scoring center, but his rebounding and blocks were the bread and butter of his fantasy appeal. So far this season, he's increased his rebounding average while his blocks stay a little above one per game. He's a good asset to have in category formats.

Mon Jun 20 202222:08Timberwolves Interested In Clint Capela
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela has been rumored to be on the move ahead of the 2022-23 campaign. His name has already been linked to a swap for Deandre Ayton. Yet, another franchise is seemingly interested in acquiring his services, the Timberwolves. It's unknown who Minnesota would be willing to exchange. But if Capela ends up with the Timberwolves, his days as a consistent starting option are likely over, primarily with Karl-Anthony Towns expected to get plenty of work in the future. Capela, who has three years remaining on his current deal, has been a double-double threat throughout the years but has had issues staying healthy, so a demotion of sorts may be a good thing, especially if it keeps him on the floor moving ahead. Yet, fewer minutes isn't usually beneficial for fantasy managers, and it would ultimately reduce the big man's attractiveness in all formats.

Tue Apr 26 202221:29Clint Capela Won't Return To Game 5
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (knee) won't return to the playoff matchup against Miami on Tuesday night. After hyperextending his right knee during the play-in tournament, the big man recently returned to the lineup in Game 4. However, it appears he returned too soon, so his availability for Game 6 (if necessary) is now in jeopardy. Capella may also need to have the injury addressed during the offseason, which wouldn't be good news for a player who's battled various injuries throughout his career. Nonetheless, Onyeka Okongwu and John Collins will likely split time in the middle while Capella is out of the picture.
