Okay, so today I decided to look into Clint Capela’s contract situation. You hear names tossed around, especially centers, and I got curious about where he stood money-wise and how long he was locked up for.
My Digging Process
First thing, I just popped open my browser. Nothing fancy. Went straight to my usual search engine.
Typed in something real simple, like “Clint Capela contract details”. Hit enter and waited for the results to load up.
Got back a whole mess of links, like always. Saw the usual suspects: big sports news outlets, some basketball-specific sites, and those salary tracker websites which are usually pretty decent for this stuff. I tend to trust those salary sites a bit more for the raw numbers, but cross-check with news reports too.
I clicked on a couple of the top results. Skipped the ads, obviously. Started scanning the pages. What I was looking for was pretty basic:
- When did he sign the current deal?
- Which team was it with? (Atlanta Hawks, I remembered that part).
- How many years was it for?
- What was the total dollar amount?
Found mentions of an extension he signed a while back, seemed like it was a two-year deal added onto his previous one. The numbers I saw popping up consistently were somewhere in the mid-40 million dollar range for those two extra years. So, like around $46 million for two years, give or take.
Needed to confirm the years it covered. Looked like it kicked in for the 2023-24 season and runs through the 2024-25 season. That seemed right based on when the news broke about the extension.
I double-checked this across maybe two or three different sources just to make sure they weren’t all just copying each other with bad info. The main details – the team (Hawks), the extension length (2 years), and the total value (around $45-46M) – seemed pretty solid and consistent everywhere I looked.
Wrapping Up
So yeah, that was my little research dive. Took maybe 10 minutes. Found out he’s on that two-year extension with Atlanta, running through the ’24-’25 season. It wasn’t super hidden or anything, just took a few clicks and a bit of reading to piece together the main facts from the search results. Now I’ve got a clearer picture of his contract status.
