Tue Apr 26 202218:41Clint Capela To Suit Up For Game 5
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (knee) will play during Tuesday's Game 5 against the Miami Heat. He was listed as questionable coming into this game, but feels well enough to get on the court. Capela made his series debut during Game 4, but only scored two points in 21 minutes. The Hawks are hopeful to get more out of Capela during Tuesday's contest. He'll be a risky fantasy option since he didn't bring much to the table during his last game.

Mon Apr 25 202220:44Clint Capela Tagged As Questionable For Game 5
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (knee) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's Game 5 against the Miami Heat. Capela was able to return to the starting unit on Sunday and played 21 minutes in that contest. Head coach Nate McMillan mentioned that Capela looked fine, so fantasy managers should consider him closer to probable. Otherwise, John Collins and Onyeka Okongwu would see significant playing time if Collins is unable to play. Fantasy managers should have a better idea after Tuesday's shootaround.

Mon Apr 25 202210:41Clint Capela Manages Just One Bucket In His Return
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (knee) made his series debut in Game 4 against the Miami Heat on Sunday. He played a total of 21 minutes in the game and tied for the team-lead in rebounds with seven, but he didn't make many other contributions to the game. He shot just 1-for-4 from the field and didn't add any defensive stats. Capela suffered a right knee hyperextension during the play-in tournament, so it's not surprising to see him fail to make much of an impact in his first game back. He should play around 20 minutes in Tuesday's Game 5 as well. We'll see if he can get into more of a groove in his second game back.

Sun Apr 24 202218:13Clint Capela To Make Series Debut
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (knee) will play on Sunday evening against Miami. The 27-year-old hasn't been available since hyperextending his right knee during the play-in tournament. Nonetheless, it's likely Capela won't see his usual workload, although he should see the floor enough to take Onyeka Okongwu out of DFS consideration in all formats.

Sat Apr 23 202223:47Clint Capela May Play In Game 4
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (knee) has a chance at suiting up for the playoff bout versus Miami. Capela hasn't played yet during the series after hyperextending his right knee during the play-in tournament. However, fantasy managers shouldn't get too excited if the big man is out there on Sunday, primarily since he may not see his usual allotment of minutes. Yet, even with a limited workload, Capela's presence could still impact Onyeka Okongwu, who has averaged 5.7 boards, 4.7 points, and 1.0 blocks throughout the postseason. Nonetheless, if Capela is ruled out again, Okongwu should be considered a high-risk value option in DFS tournament formats.

Fri Apr 22 202217:00Clint Capela Ruled Out For Friday's Game
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Miami Heat. Capela has yet to play in the team's opening round series as he's been hampered by a hyperextended right knee. He has resumed his strength exercises, but still needs some time before getting back on the court. We'll see John Collins take on the center role for the team once again in Game 3 on Friday as the Hawks look to shift the momentum of the series on their home court.

Tue Apr 19 202210:24Clint Capela Could Be Available On Friday
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (knee) won't suit up for Tuesday's Game 2 matchup against the Miami Heat. However, the big man has resumed his strength exercises and will be re-evaluated on Friday. This means, Capela could be nearing a return and possibly play in Game 3. That would certainly be a huge boost to the Hawks roster, but fantasy managers will have to be patient until Friday. Onyeka Okongwu would likely head back to the bench and see a reduced role, assuming Capela does return.

Mon Apr 18 202219:51Clint Capela To Sit Out Game 2
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's Game 2 contest against the Miami Heat. He missed both the play-in game and the first game of this series due to a right knee issue. Onyeka Okongwu and John Collins will be asked to soak up a majority of the minutes at center. Gorgui Dieng should get extended minutes as well, but isn't much of a fantasy option. Capela is currently without a timetable, so he could end up missing a majority of this series.

Sat Apr 16 202222:56Clint Capela To Be Reevaluated In A Week
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (knee) underwent an MRI on Saturday. The results were encouraging, revealing no structural damage to his right knee, which he injured on Friday night during the play-in win over the Cleveland Cavaliers. Yet, DFS managers shouldn't expect him to be in the lineup throughout the first-round postseason meeting against the Miami Heat. The big man will be reexamined in one week to see where he's at in the recovery process. However, until Capela can make it back, Onyeka Okongwu will likely take his place in the lineup, with the 21-year-old averaging 10.5 points, 7.3 rebounds, and 2.2 blocks across six starts during the regular season.

Sat Apr 16 202212:42Clint Capela May Have Avoided Serious Injury
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (knee) may have avoided serious damage to his right knee, which he injured during Friday's play-in win over the Cleveland Cavaliers. The team remains "optimistic" that the 27-year-old won't be sidelined for an extended period, although he will undergo an MRI on Saturday to determine the severity of the ailment. With Game 1 of the postseason meeting between Atlanta and Miami beginning on Easter Sunday, there's still a good chance Capella won't be out there, meaning Onyeka Okongwu should get plenty of minutes at the five, making him an attractive DFS value play.

Fri Apr 15 202221:23Clint Capela Won't Return Versus Cleveland
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (knee) won't return to the pivotal play-in contest versus the Cleveland Cavaliers. Capela was coming into this matchup fresh off a 17-rebound and 15-point showing against the Charlotte Hornets on Wednesday, a game where he also contributed three blocks and two steals. He was well on his way to another double-double. However, the 27-year-old sustained a hyperextended right knee in the second quarter after inadvertently pulling Evan Mobley down on him. He was assisted back to the locker room by the training staff, so if the Hawks advance beyond Friday's do-or-die battle, the club may be forced to navigate its way through the postseason without Capela and John Collins (finger, foot) for the foreseeable future. Nonetheless, an update on Capela's status should come over the next day or so. In the meantime, Onyeka Okongwu will likely get as many minutes in the middle as he can handle.

Wed Apr 13 202221:46Clint Capela Posts Double-Double In Wednesday's Victory
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela was a dominant force in the lane on both ends of the court in Wednesday's 132-103 victory over the Charlotte Hornets. He racked up 15 points, 17 rebounds, three assists, three blocks and two steals in the game while shooting 6-for-9 from the field and 3-for-6 from the free throw line. Capela has averaged a double-double in each of his last five seasons, but his statistics took a hit overall this past year, coming off his career-best 2020-21 campaign. He averaged 11.1 points and 11.9 rebounds this season after going for 15.2 points and 14.3 rebounds per game in 2020-21. Regardless, it looks like he's heating up at the right time for the Hawks. He'll look to build off of Wednesday's strong performance in the team's next play-in game against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday.

Sun Jan 23 202217:55Clint Capela On Minutes Limit
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (ankle) will be on a minutes limit for Sunday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He came off the bench and played 26 minutes on Friday without any issues. Head coach Nate McMillan hasn't shared how many minutes Capela will play on Sunday, but it should be similar to Friday. Onyeka Okongwu has been solid lately, but could begin losing value with Capela getting back into action. Fantasy managers should hold onto Okongwu for now, but his value could quickly evaporate.

Fri Jan 21 202218:05Clint Capela Returns To Action Friday
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (ankle) has received the green light to suit up for Friday's contest against Miami, marking a return to action after a six-game absence. Capela's return is likely to zap Onyeka Okongwu of his DFS appeal, as the second-year center has starred in his limited starting duties. Capela enters the night third in the league in rebounds per game (13.1), including a stretch where has snagged at least nine boards in 25 consecutive outings. The 27-year-old is as matchup-proof as they come, but the combination of the Heat's stout defense, their stingy production in limiting opposing centers, and Capela's minutes restriction all adds up to him being a shaky DFS option on his first night back.

Thu Jan 20 202218:51Clint Capela, Danilo Gallinari Draw Questionable Tags For Friday
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (ankle) and power forward Danilo Gallinari (Achilles) have earned questionable designations for Friday's contest vs. Miami. Capela has missed each of Atlanta's past six games due to a sprained left ankle, paving the way for Onyeka Okongwu to emerge as a strong DFS and short-term season-long option. Prior to being injured, Capela was on a rebounding tear, having logged double-digit boards in 23 of his last 25 games. Gallinari has reclaimed his rhythm over his last four outings, averaging 16.5 points and 4.5 rebounds while shooting 45.8 percent from behind the arc. Fantasy managers will want to check back prior to tip-off as Capela and Gallinari's respective statuses are imperative to the Hawks' rotation.

Tue Jan 18 202218:55Clint Capela, Bogdan Bogdanovic Out For Wednesday’s Game
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (ankle) and point/shooting guard Bogdan Bogdanovic (knee) have been ruled inactive ahead of Wednesday's contest vs. Minnesota. Capela continues to battle a sprained left ankle, which has now cost him six consecutive games. Bogdanovic has seen his year sidetracked by myriad injuries, the latest of which has been a sore right knee. Onyeka Okongwu has played a sizable frontcourt role in Capela's absence, a role that he stands to reprise so long as the veteran big man is sidelined. On the wing, De'Andre Hunter and Kevin Huerter will likely have more minutes and shot attempts funneled in their direction. The next chance for Capela or Bogdanovic to suit up comes Friday against the Heat.

Sat Jan 15 202219:08Clint Capela Ruled Out Versus Knicks
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the New York Knicks. As expected, Capela will miss his fourth game in a row due to an ankle issue. Onyeka Okongwu should move into the starting five again with Capela sidelined. He could have some deep league appeal, but hasn't done much with his extended role. John Collins will see a bump in usage and could be worth a look in DFS contests with Capela unable to play.

Wed Jan 12 202218:37Clint Capela, Cam Reddish Will Miss Wednesday’s Contest
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (ankle) and shooting guard/small forward Cam Reddish (ankle) have been ruled out for Wednesday's game vs. Miami. The absence of Capela marks his second straight game missed, while Reddish is dealing with lingering effects of having sprained his ankle Sunday. Onyeka Okongwu figures to step into a larger role at the center spot, making him an appealing upside DFS play on the nine-game slate. The flummoxing fantasy production of Reddish remains, as he recently delivered these scoring totals in a five-game stretch: 33, 14, 2, 18, 0. The next chance that either player will have to suit up comes Friday in a rematch against the Heat.

Sat Jan 8 202220:25Clint Capela Doubtful For Sunday
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. He was only able to play 23 minutes on Friday before exiting due to a left ankle sprain. It sounds like the organization is going to play it safe and have Capela sit out at least one game. Sadly, Gorgui Dieng won't be available to play as he is currently sidelined due to the league's health and safety protocols. That means, Onyeka Okongwu should move into the starting five on Sunday. He'll see all the minutes he can handle with the Hawks shorthanded on centers. Okongwu is a fantastic streaming option right now and looks like a strong DFS option for Sunday's slate.

Sat Jan 1 202207:51Clint Capela Finishes Off 2021 With A Big Game
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela took a faceful of Jarrett Allen in the second quarter of Friday's matchup against Cleveland, but he had the last laugh with 18 points, 23 rebounds, two assists, one steal and four blocks in a 121-118 win. Capela had a season-high 17 shot attempts and he made nine of them. The Swiss big man is picking up speed again after looking sluggish in his first games back from health and safety protocols. He gets a pair of dream matchups next against Portland and Sacramento. The Blazers have allowed centers to shoot a league-high 60.3 percent against them this season and the Kings are the worst rebounding team against centers, giving up 18.5 boards per 48 minutes.
