Capela racked up 23 points (9-11 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-7 FT), 13 rebounds, one assist, three blocks and one steal over 23 minutes during Sunday's 132-101 win over the Grizzlies. With Houston sitting the first unit, Capela started, recorded a double-double and hit an intriguing milestone. After seven failed attempts over his 12 seasons in the league, Capela drained the first three-pointer of his career. Although he's stuck behind Alperen Sengun on the depth chart, Capela has provided ample support in limited action. He'll return to the bench against the Lakers during the first round of the playoffs.

Clint Capela: Breaking News
Starting Sunday
Capela is in the starting lineup for Sunday's matchup with the Grizzlies, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports. Reed Sheppard, Josh Okogie, Tari Eason and Jae'Sean Tate will join Capela in the first unit for Sunday's regular-season finale. Over two starts this season, Capela has averaged 8.5 points, 8.0 rebounds and 1.0 blocks per game.
Fails to score in victory
Capela contributed zero points (0-1 FG), two rebounds and one assist across 12 minutes during Tuesday's 111-94 victory over the Knicks. Capela's role, although relatively secure, is certainly not that of a player aspiring to be a starter in the NBA. Now toward the backend of his career, Capela is really the only option Houston has in terms of a backup center. While he can provide sporadic contributions in both rebounds and blocks, his production has been far too inconsistent to warrant fantasy attention.
