In the 2014 NBA Draft, the Houston Rockets selected Clint Capela, fresh out of playing two seasons in France's top league, the LNB Pro A. Unfortunately, Capela didn't make it to the Rockets' roster (yet) but the D-League will give the 20-year-old an opportunity to hone his skills and show off a bit. Recently, Clint did the latter at the expense of 2008 first-round selection, Joe Alexander, during a game against the Santa Cruz Warriors

With Capela cutting to the basket and preparing for lift-off towards the basket, Alexander tried to slip in and take a charge. However, with Alexander situated in the restricted area, there was no saving him from an absolutely brutal posterization, which may have been better than anything you have seen so far this season in the NBA. Or, at least, second behind this beauty by James Ennis on Rasual Butler.
