Clint Capela (hand) questionable for Hawks against Clippers
Atlanta Hawks forward/center Clint Capela (hand) is questionable to play Tuesday against the Los Angeles Clippers.
What It Means:
Capela was held out Sunday and the Hawks may keep him sidelined tonight for the front end of their back-to-back set. Trae Young (back) is also questionable after missing the last game. Onyeka Okongwu drew the start in place of Capela on Sunday but was replaced by Danilo Gallinari (ankle, questionable) after halftime and only finished with 4 points and 2 rebounds over 16 minutes. John Collins, meanwhile, put up 30 points with 6 triples and would be in line for expanded usage again if Capela and Young both remain sidelined Tuesday.
numberFire’s models currently project Capela for 37.8 FanDuel points versus the Clippers and he has a salary of $10,500 on Tuesday’s slate. The Clippers are allowing the third-fewest FanDuel points per game to the center position this season.
