Won't return Tuesday Capela won't return to Tuesday's Game 5 against the Heat due to a right knee injury, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.
Impact The center has reportedly re-injured his right knee, the same injury which made him miss the first three games of the series. Capela posted two points and grabbed eight rebounds in 19 minutes before exiting.

Available Tuesday Capela (knee) is available for Tuesday's Game 5 at Miami.
Impact Capela was initially questionable but will be good to go, though the Hawks will be missing Bogdan Bogdanovic (knee). Capela made his series debut in Game 4, playing 21 minutes and posting two points (1-4 FG) and seven rebounds.

Listed questionable for Game 5 Capela (knee) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's Game 5 at Miami, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.
Impact The big man made his return to the lineup for Sunday's Game 4, but he didn't offer much in 21 minutes of action, finishing with just two points and seven boards. He may be dealing with some soreness in his hyperextended right knee, so the Hawks will keep an eye on him over the next 24 hours before making an official call on his status. There's been no indication that Capela tweaked the knee, however, so he's likely closer to probable than questionable.

Doesn't offer much in return Capela (knee) produced two points (1-4 FG) and seven rebounds in 21 minutes during Sunday's 110-86 loss to the Heat in Game 4 of the first-round series.
Impact Making his series debut after missing Games 1 through 3 with a knee injury, Capela was back in the starting lineup at center, but he didn't look totally comfortable in his 21 minutes of action. While Capela did bring down seven rebounds, he failed to record any defensive stats. The Hawks will see how his knee responds Monday, but for now the expectation is that Capela will be good to go for Tuesday's Game 5 back in Miami.

Starting Game 4 Capela is starting Sunday's Game 4 against Miami, Sarah K. Spencer of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Impact Capela has been cleared to return Sunday following a three-game absence due to a knee injury, and he'll officially rejoin the starting lineup. However, it's possible that he'll have a minutes restriction in his first game back.

Available for Game 4 Capela (knee) is available for Sunday's Game 4 against Miami.
Impact Capela was a game-time decision ahead of Saturday's matchup, and he'll officially be able to return following a three-game absence. It's not yet clear whether he'll start or have a minutes restriction against the Heat, but he'll be a nice addition to Atlanta's defense in Game 4.

Heat's Lowry ruled out against Hawks with hamstring injury
Miami Heat point guard Kyle Lowry has been ruled out of Sunday night’s Game 4 of the playoffs against the Atlanta Hawks due to a left hamstring strainAPRIL 24, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Expected to be game-time decision Hawks head coach Nate McMillan said Capela (knee) is a game-time decision ahead of Sunday's Game 4 against the Heat, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.
Impact In a surprising move, Capela was upgraded to questionable Saturday after being re-evaluated during Friday's practice. If the big man is able to return, it's possible he'll be on a minutes limit and/or come off the bench. Either way, his potential presence would be a big boost for Atlanta's defense, which has struggled in his absence.

Questionable for Game 4 Capela (knee) is questionable for Sunday's Game 4 against the Heat, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports.
Impact This is big news for the Hawks, who have been without Capela since losing him in their do-or-die play-in victory over the Cavaliers. If the center returns, he could be on a minutes limit and/or come off the bench. Onyeka Okongwu could be in line for fewer minutes in that case.

Re-evaluation coming Friday General manager Travis Schlenk said Tuesday that Capela (knee) has restarted strength exercises and will be re-evaluated Friday, Mike Conti of the Atlanta Hawks Radio Network repor...
Impact If Capela is determined to have made significant progress in his recovery from the hyperextended right knee when he's re-examined Friday, he could be cleared to resume on-court work. Even so, it's unlikely that Capela would be immediately ready for full-contact, full-court practices, so the 27-year-old may have a tough time getting the green light to play in the Hawks' first-round series with the Heat unless it ends up being pushed to six or seven games.
