Report: 'Good chance' Heat's Whiteside returns from injury Wednesday
Hassan Whiteside may have just made Heat fans flip out for no good reason. Here's what Whiteside had to say Tuesday after practice, via Manny Navarro of the Miami Herald:
"It's just a lot of soreness right now. I really feel like I can't really do anything as far as running or jumping or anything."
That was in regards to the pain in his right knee, the injury which kept him out of Monday's game against the Pacers, an eventual 103-100 overtime victory to improve the Heat to 21-13 on the season. Now, though, there is far better news coming from the Heat camp.
From Ira Winderman of the Sun Sentinel:
Miami hosts the Knicks on Wednesday before heading on the road to play six consecutive games away from home. Having Whiteside for that road trip, let alone for the home game before as well, would be an obvious massive help.
