6 years agoHouston Rockets center Clint Capela brought his lunch box on Thursday when he put in the work on the interior against the Nuggets to secure the statement win. Capela scored 17 points and grabbed 15 rebounds while swatting away a shot with a steal in 29 minutes of action. Capela notched the double-double by halftime and continued to dominate against the Nuggets and Nikola Jokic this season. This is a potential second-round matchup, and the Nuggets will need to find a way to contain the Swiss big man if they are to meet in a seven-game series.--Gianni Costantiello
