Miami's Hassan Whiteside (hand) will play Friday night

Miami Heat center Hassan Whiteside will play Friday against the Utah Jazz.

What It Means:

According to the Miami Herald's Manny Navarro, Miami head coach Erik Spoelstra said that Whiteside's left hand probably won't need wrapped for tonight's contest. He had injured the hand on Wednesday when fouled by the Suns' Marquese Chriss.

At $8,900, Whiteside is the second-most expensive center on Friday's seven-game slate. His projected 34.6 FanDuel points rank just eighth among all centers and 20th among all players tonight.
