Clint Capela has gotten bigger and better

Clint Capela had his first true taste of a full season in the NBA last year, averaging just under 20 minutes a game, scoring 7 points while pulling in 6.4 rebounds.

His performance and overall talent were enough to assure the Houston Rockets brass move that they can move on from Dwight Howard. This upcoming season, Capela will be asked to play even more than he did last year, probably between 10 and 15 more minutes per game.

During media day, Capela mentioned that he's bulked up, adding about 10-12 pounds to his frame.
