Heat's Hassan Whiteside: Records double-double in loss to Nuggets

Whiteside recorded 16 points (6-12 FG, 4-6 FT), 12 rebounds, three blocks and two assists across 33 minutes during Sunday's 116-113 loss to the Nuggets.

Analysis:

Whiteside had his hands full with Niokla Jokic and the rest of the Denver frontcourt, but he managed to record yet another double-double while exceeding his season average for blocks. He also continued a recent trend of improved free throw shooting and has now knocked down 78 percent of his foul shots over the last 12 games. Whiteside continues to provide elite fantasy production at the center position and should continue to do so as Miami battles for their playoff lives down the stretch.
