Clint Capela (2014-2020)
“I want to face them,” Clint Capela of the Houston Rockets Center said of the Golden State Warriors after Houston got the Utah Jazz in the playoffs, per the Houston Chronicle’s Jonathan Feigen. As Feigen, Blue Man Hoop’s Nathan Beighle, and The Dream Shake’s Colin Connors all explained, Golden State made Capela eat those words. Among Houston starters for that series, Capela’s net rating was the worst. Maybe during the 2020 postseason, he’ll get lucky and won’t have to see Draymond Green and Golden State.

Myles Turner (2015-2020)
The Indiana Pacers awarded a contract extension to center Myles Turner in October 2018, and the 23-year-old went on to lead the NBA in blocks per game (2.7) and strengthen his three-point shooting to a career-high 38.8 percent (76-196). Turner may compete for All-Defensive honors, but if playing him in the same lineup as Domantas Sabonis doesn’t result in wins before Victor Oladipo returns from injury, that will mean little to the Pacers.
