Clint Capela Records Double-Double Against Celtics
6 years agoHouston Rockets center Clint Capela scored 24 points on 9-for-14 shooting in Thursday's win over the Boston Celtics. Capela also grabbed 18 rebounds, including nine on the offensive end. He blocked a shot as well. Capela is averaging 16 rebounds per game over the past eight games as the big man has grabbed a bigger chunk of the team's boards. On Saturday, the Rockets play the Pelicans, who allow the 15th-fewest rebounds per game. That level of resistance shouldn't have much of an impact on what Capela is capable of doing with Chris Paul (hamstring) out and Houston relying heavily on their top players.
