Clint Capela's Status Revealed for Today's Game vs Indiana

After coming into today's game vs Indiana as questionable, the Hawks are choosing to rest Clint Capela for today's game. With Capela out, Atlanta will have to rely on Bruno Fernando and Mouhamed Gueye today for center minutes.

It is hard to preview today like a normal game because of the uncertainty over what the Hawks will do today.

Indiana and Atlanta are two of the best offenses in the NBA, led by star point guards. Trae Young and Tyrese Haliburton are two of the league's best passers and have had big games against each other when their two teams have played. Young has looked good in the two games since coming back from injury, but I don't expect him to play much today. Atlanta will need him to play big minutes in their next game.

Dejounte Murray was having another good game against Minnesota before not playing the final quarter. Murray has had to play a lot of minutes with Young out and he would benefit from getting some rest today.

De'Andre Hunter is one of the Hawks's most important players on both ends of the court and he played really well on Friday vs Minnesota. Hunter has had issues with injuries this year and I don't think he will play a lot today.

Bogdan Bogdanovic was a starter the other night instead of Vit Krejci and like Murray, he had to play a lot of minutes while Young was out. He is another player that would benefit from rest today.
