Capela will come off the bench Monday against the Knicks, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports. With Onyeka Okongwu in the midst of the best stretch of his career, this move was inevitable. Capela played 21 minutes or fewer in his last three games, and his fantasy upside could be limited going forward with the Hawks giving Okongwu more playing time.

Clint Capela Latest News
Coming off bench
Capela will come off the bench Monday against the Knicks, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports. With Onyeka Okongwu in the midst of the best stretch of his career, this move was inevitable. Capela played 21 minutes or fewer in his last three games, and his fantasy upside could be limited going forward with the Hawks giving Okongwu more playing time.
Records double-double in loss
Capela closed Thursday's 123-115 loss to the Suns with 10 points (4-11 FG, 2-2 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal over 26 minutes. Capela and Onyeka Okongwu continued their timeshare at center, but Capela had the better total over his teammate in the loss. The veteran was mentioned consistently as a trade target in the offseason, but the Hawks would be very thin inside if they dealt him now, and Okongwu sometimes struggles when given the starting nod.
Bounces back Tuesday
Capela ended Tuesday's 124-121 victory over the Jazz with 18 points (9-11 FG), six rebounds and three blocks over 25 minutes. Capela was efficient from the floor and posted his highest scoring output since Nov. 22, when he finished with 21 points and 11 rebounds in a loss to the Bulls. That said, this was the first time he eclipsed the 10-point mark in January and just the third time he had done it over his last 10 games. He remains valuable in fantasy, but there's no doubt his upside is not what it once was.
Struggles in loss
Capela closed with eight points (4-8 FG), seven rebounds and two assists in 22 minutes during Friday's 119-102 loss to the Lakers. Capela was squelched by Anthony Davis in the opening minutes of the first quarter. Onyeka Okongwu and Jalen Johnson were able to prop up the frontcourt effectively after Davis' opening barrage, and Capela wasn't seen again until midway through the second quarter. He fared much better against Davis at that point, but he was almost a non-factor in the second half.
Seventh double-double of season
Capela finished with 11 points (4-6 FG, 3-4 FT), 12 rebounds, two assists and two steals across 27 minutes during Sunday's 136-107 win over Toronto. Capela came away with his seventh double-double of the season Sunday, with it being his first since a Dec. 11 win over the Knicks. Over his last 12 games, the veteran big man is averaging 9.8 rebounds, 7.8 points, 1.3 assists, 1.0 blocks and 0.7 steals while shooting 55.1 percent from the field. Capela is averaging his fewest points (9.6), boards (9.2) and swats (1.0) per game this season since 2015-16, when he was a part-time player with the Rockets, but he still appears to have the trust of head coach Quin Snyder as Atlanta's regular starting center despite the presence of former first-rounder Onyeka Okongwu off the bench.
Blocks four shots Saturday
Capela amassed six points (3-8 FG, 0-2 FT), eight rebounds, four blocks and one steal across 29 minutes during Saturday's 110-102 loss to Milwaukee. Capela played at least 28 minutes for just the fourth time this season, tallying a season-high four blocks. It's been a modest season for the veteran, currently averaging 10.0 points, 9.4 rebounds and 1.0 blocks in 23.0 minutes per game. The coaching staff seems intent on splitting the center minutes across Capela and Onyeka Okongwu, typically limiting the opportunities for both players.
Sees just 19 minutes
Capela amassed nine points (4-7 FG, 1-2 FT), 10 rebounds and one assist across 19 minutes during Sunday's 141-111 loss to the Nuggets. Capela made the most of his limited minutes, and his workloads have been frustrating for his fantasy managers. He's averaging 22.7 minutes compared to 24.0 for Onyeka Okongwu, and he's produced 11th-round value in nine-category formats on the season.
Grabs 17 rebounds in win
Capela registered nine points (4-6 FG, 1-1 FT), 17 rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals in 29 minutes during Monday's 124-112 victory over New Orleans. Capela continues to outplay Onyeka Okongwu, serving as the primary center option in Atlanta. Although his offensive game is not what it used to be, he still provides elite defensive numbers while also crashing the boards with regularity. He has recorded at least 13 rebounds in three straight games, adding a combined 11 steals and blocks. Perhaps even more impressive is the fact that he has played in every game thus far, allowing him to continue to build chemistry with some of his newer teammates.
Another double-double
Capela totaled 11 points (5-12 FG, 1-4 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal in 22 minutes during Wednesday's 120-97 loss to Golden State. Capela is making the most of his minutes in recent weeks, scoring in double digits in all but one of his last six appearances while posting three double-doubles in that stretch. That said, Capela is splitting time at center with Onyeka Okongwu, and that's undoubtedly limiting his upside. The veteran big man is averaging 11.9 points and 9.1 boards per game since the beginning of November, and he'll remain valuable in most formats as long as he remains in the starting lineup. For now, that's not expected to change.
