Houston Rockets: Clint Capela still hoping to return right after All-Star break

Clint Capela is greatly missed right now by the Houston Rockets. His ability to rebound and play interior defense is something that the team needs badly, especially in a game/loss like last night.

Despite winning more games than losing in his absence, the constant theme has been being outrebounded. Last night, the Rockets blew a 25+ point lead in the game against the Thunder and lost the rebounding battle 53-38. Kenneth Faried has been great for the team, but him starting and playing heavy minutes has its effect on the defense and glass.

Thankfully, Clint Capela still seems to be on the right track to recovery.
