As the rumors were flying earlier on Tuesday there seemed to be a mixed reaction about wanting Capela and if he'd be good for the Hawks.
Over the past three years Capela has averaged 14.3 points, 11.1 rebounds, and 1.6 blocks per game. He also brings a field goal percentage of 64.5% over the past 3 seasons.
Last season with Houston, Clint Capela was 9th in the NBA in total rebounds, 4th overall in offensive rebounds, and 2nd in field goal percentage.
