Capela has to improve offensively with reliable scoring from 10 ft in. He was exposed whenever he caught the ball outside of the lane and the defense forced to put the ball on the floor by blocking passing lanes. Dream and Lucas has worked to do so that Clint can play deep into the 4th quarter against a GSW!
I think currently he is closer to EG than James or CP3 . But , it's unclear how much more development he has in the tank . He can't create for others , and it's rare that a big is able to do so . However , he also is fairly new towards creating for himself . Ultimately, he is still a young player who has improved by a significant amount each year . The answer to the question of if he can be a franchise player will likely come in the next year or two . I think his defense is going to continue to get better . He is gaining experience and has the smarts to hone His instincts to the next level. He can probably get a bit stronger without losing quickness. Offensively , it will be growth in skills that can vault him into a higher tier as a player . Physically, you don't want him to become too much stronger because it will limit his quickness and versatility on defense . So it will have to be skill related. He has excellent footwork and good smarts and good work ethic . The ingredients are all there , it just needs time to click . Hopefully he can take another big leap . I know we shoot 3's , but if Clint can add a reliable 15 footer and hone those hook shots then it will benefit the team greatly . He has shown some comfort already in the post and has decent dribbling skills which I would like to see expanded. I think Clint can be a top 5 big , especially Due to his versatility and fit within our scheme. If he can just add a bit more shot creation for himself I think he's a solid enough passer to help others off of that too . I think depending on his growth and how Paul holds up , we could look at Clint as the second best player on our roster by the end of next season
