Whiteside (hand) is probable for Thursday's game agains the Bulls, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. Whiteside is still dealing with the after-effects of the slice to his right hand, which he sustained against the Bucks back on Mar. 24. He was held out of Sunday's game against the Pacers but returned to start Tuesday against Charlotte, finishing with 12 points and eight rebounds. Given the Heat's positioning in the East, it's difficult to imagine Whiteside sitting out Thursday.
