NBA ROLE: ATHLETIC, TWO-WAY PIVOT

 

Clint Capela is a hyperactive rebounder* & shot-blocker on the inside, Capela actually wants to play defense, which is a pretty big deal; one of the league's most unheralded bigs – very good as a roll man: Capela has an excellent connection w/ Trae Young – extremely active, great hands, knows how to release shots high before a defender converges; specializes at catch & finishing, can score in space via euros & short Js; decent hook game (room to improve), soft touch; working to secure more signature moves; very poor foul shooter, legitimate “hack-a” candidate; excellent discipline on D: doesn't bite for many fakes, secures possessions; long-time defensive anchor in ATL – designated Watch DOG/rim protector for Coach Quin Snyder

*career: 10.7 rpg
