As we read in one of the previous slides, The Houston Rockets have started to play better this season. They are now 10th in the Western Conference, with a 15-14 record and are 6-4 in the past 10 matches.

They also are on a four-game win streak, showing that their form might just stick this time around. Apart from Harden carrying this team, the second star this year for them is their big man, Clint Capela.

Capela has taken a leap again this season, he is averaging just above 17 points per game, and just under 12 rebounds per game as well. He is a great defender and rim protector as well, averaging more than two blocks a game.

In this last game against Utah Jazz, he was bullied and battered by Rudy Gobert, scoring just 5 points, but managed 14 rebounds.

He was absolutely elite on defense, getting 3 steals and a massive 5 blocks as well. He will look to bounce back offensively against the Washington Wizards, who do not have a competent frontcourt to keep him quiet.

Alternate pick: Andre Drummond (Detroit Pistons)
