Fantasy Impact
Capela has been dealing with plantar fasciitis and will be sidelined a period of weeks. The Hawks are in rebuilding mode, and have no real reason to rush their newly acquired star center back into action. Dewayne Dedmon should see an expanded role with Capela sidelined. He is worth a pickup in all standard leagues. As for Capela, he will most likely be re-evaluated in the upcoming weeks.
