Recently something unexpected happened; the Atlanta Hawks have said they might trade Clint Capela. This has started lots of discussions in the NBA. Fans are thinking about where he might go. Let’s look at the 5 places he could end up.
1. Washington Wizards
The Washington Wizards have seen big changes this offseason after losing Bradley Beal. As they prepare for the upcoming season, it looks like Daniel Gafford might take the center position. Although Gafford is a decent player, he doesn’t match up to Clint Capela’s performance.
Getting Clint Capela would boost the team’s inside scoring and rebounding capabilities. Wizards must be looking forward to getting Capela.
2. Charlotte Hornets
The NBA team Charlotte Hornets did a smart thing by picking Brandon Miller in the draft. He’s quite good at scoring. Now the team looks a bit stronger with both NBA star Miller and LaMelo Ball. LaMelo is a master at passing and scoring, so having Capela close to the basket would make the team even stronger there. Let’s see what happens. The fans are excited this time.
3. Dallas Mavericks
The Dallas Mavericks want to improve their frontcourt, and Clint Capela could help a lot. He’s great at defense and working together in pick-and-roll plays. This could be very helpful for their main star player Luka Dončić, making them better at both defense and scoring.
4. Golden State Warriors
The Golden State Warriors had a quite busy offseason. They traded Jordan Poole and got Chris Paul. Enthusiasts wonder how Paul will fit in as a starter. They still need a main center, and NBA star Clint Capela is a great option. But the Hawks have Trae Young and Dejounte Murray, so a trade for Paul and Capela might need another team.
5. San Antonio Spurs
The Spurs picked Victor Wembanyama in the draft, and fans are wondering if he might play power forward because he’s not very big. They don’t have NBA star Jakob Poeltl anymore, so they need a good center to start.
That’s where Clint Capela comes in. With both of them, the Spurs could have a really tall duo that stops passes and guards the hoop. Wembanyama can also shoot from not too far away, so they could work together with pick and rolls. Capela could score close to the hoop, and Wemby could shoot.
