Miami's Hassan Whiteside (knee) ruled out for Saturday
Miami Heat center Hassan Whiteside has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Indiana Pacers.
What It Means:
According to the Miami Herald's Barry Jackson, Whiteside will sit with a bone bruise to his left knee. He suffered the injury as he bumped knees with Orlando's Nikola Vucevic during Wednesday night's matchup. With him on the mend, Kelly Olynyk will probably go to center as James Johnson enters the starting unit at power forward.
Prior to being ruled out, Whiteside was projected to play 32.9 minutes with 16.9 points, 14.2 rebounds and 41.2 FanDuel points against the Pacers.
