Atlanta, the team of Genevan Clint Capela (30 years old), achieved a feat during the night from Tuesday to Wednesday in the NBA. In a game also counting for the NBA Cup, the Hawks won by the tiniest of gaps at TD Garden against the Boston Celtics, winners of the last championship (116-117). A franchise which had only lost two of its first eleven duels fought since the start of the 2024-2025 campaign.

The team coached by Quin Snyder forced the decision in the second portion of the match. It was in fact led 65-54 at half-time by the Massachusetts club of star players Jaylen Brown, Derrick White and Jayson Tatum.

9 rebounds

Aligned for 17 minutes, Clint Capela took advantage of this “little” playing time to provide very concrete and valuable help to his teammates. With a contribution of 18 points, the Swiss veteran was the Hawks’ third most productive professional behind Dyson Daniels (28) and Larry Nance Jr (19). He also provided 1 assist and grabbed 9 rebounds.

In the Eastern Conference standings, Atlanta is 8th with an intermediate record of 5 victories and 7 disappointments. The ball is led by the Cleveland Cavaliers who have won all 12 games since the start of the campaign.

The Hawks, who ended a two-game losing streak, will play their next match on Saturday at 1:30 a.m. (Swiss time) against the Wizards of Valais Kyshawn George. This will be the third face to face in 2024-2025 between the only two Helvetians in the North American professional league.
