Atlanta Hawks star Dejounte Murray praised Clint Capela’s leadership following last night’s 99-92 road win vs. the Memphis Grizzlies (15 points/11 rebounds/3 assists/1 block/5-13 FG/5-5 FT/+13 +/-).

(via Atlanta Hawks):

“He’s a competitor. He’s a real veteran. He’s seen a lot in this league. He’s won in this league. So I just try to keep him confident, I try to make sure he knows that I appreciate him and what he’s done and his longevity and just try to help him stay confident in his game on the defensive end, offensive end, and just knowing we need him, because his voice is valuable in our locker room, what he experienced in this league so far. So we’re glad to get a great game out of him, just want him consistent, and not even just him, for all of us.”
