Sure, he'll be 29 in a few months, but we're talking about a guy who has finished the past 3 seasons as the number 1 player twice (and number 2 in the other season). He has a game that will age well, and we're yet to see anybody in the league capable of stopping him.

Last season, his FG% jumped from 46.9% to 49.6%, and so far, this season, his FT% has jumped from 74.1% to 78.6% (small sample size, I know, but if it's sustainable, he'll go from being a punt FT% guy to somebody who is middle of the ground, and that's a big deal).

If you're not taking him number 1 in your dynasty rookie draft, then you shouldn't be playing fantasy basketball. He's a generational talent who can fill up the state sheet across almost all categories. Don't be shocked if his minutes and body are managed to start the season, though.

He's going to be a lot of fun to watch in transition. The offensive game is there, but he needs to produce more on the defensive end to see consistent minutes this season. |

As much as the fantasy community wants Okongwu to be Atlanta's starting C, it looks like Capela is locked into that role for at least the next season.
