Welcome home, Clint Capela—the Rockets’ anchor center is back on a 3-year, $21.5M deal—and farewell, Kevon Looney, who leaves Warriors for the Pelicans.

Capela Grade: B – A proven rebounder and rim protector, averaging 12 RPG last season.
Looney Grade: B – Veteran toughness and championship experience, well-suited for New Orleans.

Stat Insight:

• Capela led the league in offensive rebounding percentage.
• Looney’s career marks include 3 NBA titles and elite help defense.

Team Fit & Outlook:
Houston doubles down on frontcourt strength. Surrounding Jabari and Dunn with a rebounding monster signals recalibrated ambitions—they’re going vertical.
Meanwhile, New Orleans lands a seasoned defender who adds grit and depth, balancing their younger core.
