Heat's Hassan Whiteside: Goes through shootaround

Whiteside (finger) went through shootaround and still intends to play Thursday against Toronto.

Analysis:

While coach Erik Spoelstra noted that Whiteside has limited use of his right hand, it appears as though the center is preparing to take the court Thursday night. Whiteside smashed his fingers into the bottom of the backboard late in Tuesday's game, causing him to exit the contest and receive 13 stitches.
