Calvin Booth, the Nuggets’ general manager, said the reason the Nuggets weren’t offered a new contract for Fcondo Capasso was that the Argentine was 1.78m tall and they wanted to build a taller team.
Facundo Capasso broke every stereotype, became a regular for Real Madrid and played in the NBA with the Nuggets. At the age of 31, he once again saw a team being judged based on his height.
The reason for Nuggets, who according to team general manager Calvin Booth, decided not to offer him a renewal after two years with the team is because… he’s short (1.78 metres).
“Faku (s.Ss Kampasso) gave his heart and soul when he was here. Everyone in the locker room loved him.” Booth initially stated when asked about it, only to add ironically afterwards:
“We wanted to try to build a longer team and didn’t think it was necessary to have a real goalkeeper like Capasso, so we went in a different direction.”
Booth concluded by saying:I know maybe Sa Campasso wanted to play more. But that’s what happens in the NBA.”
The Campasso – Who still has his first goal of staying in the NBA She wore The Nuggets shirt in the years 2020-2022. During that time he averaged 5.6 points, 1.9 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 1.1 steals in 20 minutes of action (130 games – 23 starts).
