A disappointing 2017-18 campaign that ended in playoff disappointment for Whiteside has rather clouded fans' perception of what the 7-footer is capable of.

There's a reason the Heat will shell out damn near a $100 million for the former Kings player, who broke through first in the 2015-16 season with what seemed like a season-long block party.

Whiteside is an extremely high-upside player in the mould of Steven Adams, DeAndre Jordan and Andre Drummond.

While his shenanigans out at the 3-point line during this summer are unlikely to translate to the NBA, it is clear that the 29-year-old is much more than just a roll man now.

A defensive anchor and a torrid rim-runner at his best, Whiteside would do well to earn his minutes in a rotation that now depends increasingly on Bam Adebayo and Kelly Olynyk for frontcourt production.
