Clint Capela could return for Houston on Tuesday
Houston Rockets center Clint Capela (leg) could return on Tuesday against the Miami Heat or Wednesday versus the Milwaukee Bucks.
Capela has missed the last month with a fracture in his leg, but he is scheduled to practice on Monday, so either way his return is close. Montrezl Harrell will probably lose out on most of his minutes with Capela back, but the Rockets should ease their starting center back slowly after a long layoff.
For Sunday's matchup, our models project Harrell for 11.3 points, 5.6 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.1 blocks over 23.2 minutes against the Nets.
