Whiteside has been deemed a game-time call for Monday's clash with the Nets due to illness, Jason Lieser of the Palm Beach Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Whiteside is battling an undisclosed illness, and the Heat will wait until later in the day to evaluate him and offer a final ruling on his status. Should Whiteside ultimately be held out, Chris Bosh could see increased minutes as center, with Udonis Haslem picking up some extra minutes off the bench.
