Clint Capela has still not progressed to doing any contact work or basketball activity.
But Hawks coach Lloyd Pierce had a little good news Wednesday, in that the Hawks’ new center has made progress in terms of running and movement -- he has started doing more sprints and slides at practice, testing his right foot out a little more as he comes back from plantar fasciitis and a right calcaneus contusion.
The plan is still to re-evaluate Capela March 4. He’ll be out for a while longer, with Pierce adding he’d be surprised if Capela returns for the Hawks’ games next weekend, in Washington March 6 and in Memphis March 7.
