The Miami Heat have been doing well off late. They are on a 2-game win streak, winning against the Utah Jazz 102-100 and the New Orleans Pelicans, 106-101. Apart from the regular performances of their new star, Josh Richardson and the veteran Dwayne Wade still pulling them through, they have their star center, Hassan Whiteside as well, who has been grinding in huge performances and stat lines over the season.

Hassan Whiteside has started the season really well

Whiteside is averaging almost 14 points and 14 rebounds per game, to go along with almost 3 blocks per game, which is currently the highest in the NBA. He is also trying to shoot the 3 this season, but it's hardly an attempt a game.

He has been on fire of late, scoring 23 points and grabbing 24 rebounds in a win over Utah Jazz in 34 minutes. His minutes have been a bit jagged in the past 5 games due to issues with his knee but given he logged 34 minutes against the Jazz, he has got to be good to go as he gives a great value when he plays a lot of minutes.
