Houston Rockets: Capela’s early case for NBA’s Most Improved Player

The new-look Houston Rockets feature two of the NBA’s last three MVP Award winners on the same roster. While much has been speculated concerning how a team featuring the playing styles of both James Harden and Russell Westbrook might function, perhaps the biggest surprise concerning the Houston Rockets’ emerging chemistry and identity is center, Clint Capela.
