Miami's poor start last season was the main reason Whiteside missed out on making the roster. That shouldn't be the case this year. The Heat started last season 11-30 but had a complete turnaround in the second half and went 30-11, narrowly missing the playoffs.

Whiteside's story is an incredible one. His NBA career had seemingly come to a halt in 2012 after the Kings let him go. He spent the next 2 years in the D-League and played overseas. He was snapped up by the Heat in 2014 and he hasn't looked back. He has upped his scoring and rebounding averages in all 3 seasons he's spent with the Heat.
He's also been one of the best rim protectors in the league. His offensive game, however, needs a lot of improvement. Regardless, he should make the Roster this year thanks to the outflux of talent from the East.
