EDGE Analysis
Whiteside was productive off the bench for his new team, proving that perhaps he can have a positive impact on the court. He is slated to play behind Rudy Gobert, and, barring any major injuries, it will likely remain that way for the entire season. That said, if he can see at least 15 minutes per night on a regular basis, those in deeper leagues could do a lot worse when searching for boards and blocks.
