Clint Capela cleared from concussion protocol to start for Rockets

Center Clint Capela returned to the Rockets' lineup Monday after missing two games while in the concussion protocol but said he did not experience symptoms after initially feeling dizzy following a collision with the Clippers’ JaMychal Green last week.

“Right when I got hit, I felt a little bit dizzy,” Capela said. “I think I took a bit too long to get back on my feet. That’s why they had to take me back to the back.

“I was in concussion protocol, so the first day I had to do biking. The next day I was doing workout without contact.
