Hassan Whiteside

On a recent episode of ESPN’s The Lowe Post podcast, Zach Lowe intimated that everyone on the Miami Heat’s roster could be had via trade—even Hassan Whiteside. The news was a revelation. Goran Dragic’s name has meandered in and out of the rumor mill, but that’s to be expected. He turns 31 in May; he and the Heat [...]

Hassan Whiteside tallied 32 points, 15 rebounds and five blocks in the Miami Heat’s double-overtime loss to the Orlando Magic on Tuesday night. And that wasn’t enough for him. Whiteside attempted just three shots through the two overtime periods, and he wasn’t happy about it, per Bleacher Report’s Zach Buckley: [tweet https://twitter.com/ZachBuckleyNBA/status/811433466072072192] Does Whiteside have [...]

Hassan Whiteside isn’t a three-point shooter…in actual games. Pretty much all of his shot attempts come from inside 10 feet of the basket, according to Basketball-Reference, and he has never launched a triple during regulation in an NBA game. But that doesn’t mean he doesn’t chuck treys in practice. He does. He just doesn’t have [...]

What, you didn’t think we would stop talking about the NBA’s annual general manager survey just because it’s two weeks old, did you? Because we’re not going to. At least not in Miami. Hassan Whiteside was asked if he cared that he didn’t receive a single vote in the “Who is the best center in [...]

Mark Cuban seems determined to upgrade his frontcourt. Even it that means giving a big man with limited offensive skillys way too much money. He’s determined to overpay for one. He nearly did so last year with DeAndre Jordan and it looks like he may with Hassan Whiteside. Whiteside came out of nowhere to have [...]

If the Miami Heat want to retain Hassan Whiteside’s services, they better get in line. There will be plenty of teams who give the shot-blocking, pick-and-roll-finishing, rebounding machine a look in free agency. And the Boston Celtics and Los Angeles Lakers are expected to be among them, per Basketball Insiders’ Steve Kyler: There is a [...]

Hassan Whiteside is back in the Miami Heat’s starting lineup. The big man made his return to the starting five for the first time since Jan. 20 in the Heat’s Sunday night drubbing of the Orlando Magic. And, per Manny Navvaro of the Miami Herald, the change is expected to be a permanent one: He [...]

Hassan Whiteside is the master of giving himself really corny nicknames. The Miami Heat big man has most notably referred to himself as “Agent Block,” a play on, well, we don’t really know. Maybe Gilbert Arenas’ longtime moniker, “Agent Zero.” And if that’s the angle, color me confused. And if there’s another angle, color me [...]

If Hassan Whiteside has his way, he will not be leaving the Miami Heat in free agency this summer. Here’s what the 26-year-old said of his time in Miami, per Manny Navarro of the Miami Herald: Hassan: "I feel comfortable as long as I've got a #Heat jersey on. Coming off the bench, starting, I [...]

The NBA trade chatter is heating up (literally) now that All-Star Weekend has passed and we are three days from the trade deadline. This prospective deal makes sense from a Heat perspective and allows the Rockets to get value for Howard without losing him in free agency in the offseason. Whiteside and his character issues [...]
