Every Heat fan either knows about Hassan Whiteside's Snapchat account or should do everything he or she can to find out about it as soon as possible. Whiteside is a total goofball on social media. Whether that's on Twitter or any other form, he finds ways to make things light.

Now, though, Justise Winslow is making jokes about Whiteside's 10-second videos and vanishing photos. In a recent article for the Players' Tribune, Winslow argues that Whiteside, who is averaging almost four blocks per game, should be a first-time All-Star this year. He includes this line:

Whiteside's Snapchatting has officially hit the mainstream. Let the real fun begin.
