When the Atlanta Hawks traded for Clint Capela last season they knew that he was not going to be able to play until this season. Given that the Hawks only gave up Evan Turner and a 2020 first-round draft pick to land the cornerstone of their defense.
Capela has missed very few games this season and has put his heart and soul into creating something special with his new team. Capela has almost purchased the painted area of State Farm Arena and as a result, he has changed the way opposition teams play against the Hawks.
