EDGE Analysis

Returning from a six-game absence with an oblique strain, Whiteside played only 17 minutes thanks to the fact that he committed five fouls. Even so, he managed to make his impact felt, connecting on all five of his shots while boarding and blocking at an exceptional level. Whiteside and company have Thursday off before the Heat are back in action on Friday against the Hornets.
