Clint Capela will miss a week of action due to new injury

Huge blow to the Hawks as they will have to face the Heat undermanned; that is never how you want to go into things, especially a playoff series. Even though John Collins is attempting a comeback since hurting his fingers and foot, losing Capela just hurts real bad.

The team will re-evaluate the big-man in the week, but things could have been worse. Capela got very lucky when hyperextending his right knee, that could have cost him more time and left his team in some serious trouble.

The expectations are to have Capela back for next week’s games for Atlanta. The Hawks and Heat play Game 1 on Sunday and Game 2 on Tuesday in Miami, with Games 3 (Friday) and 4 (April 24) in Atlanta.

Hawks Want To Trade Clint Capela By Deadline

According to multiple reports headlined by Marc Stein, the Atlanta Hawks want to trade Clint Capela’s expiring contract by this year’s trade deadline.

For those unaware, the 30-year-old is making $22.4 million this season, with him becoming an unrestricted free agent next offseason. Atlanta is reportedly not interested in re-signing him.

Onyeka Okongwu, when Capela is no longer with the franchise, is expected to handle the starting center position. The Hawks believe the young big man can handle those responsibilities.

Capela is averaging 10.0 points and 9.4 rebounds in 27 games this season.
