Clint Capela dominates in the paint as Houston scores a blowout win in Game 1
Houston Rockets center Clint Capela went off for 20 points, 13 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 blocks in only 25 minutes of action as the Rockets destroyed the San Antonio Spurs 126-99 on Monday.
What It Means:
Capela didn't play a huge role in the Rockets' opening series against the Oklahoma City Thunder, averaging 7.6 points and 6.6 rebounds in 22.2 minutes per game, but against a larger, slower Spurs team, it looks like he's in for an increased role in Round 2, especially if he keeps playing this well.
Capela finished Tuesday's blowout win with a game-high 37.8 nERD, per numberFire Live.
