The Miami Heat have officially announced the injury status of center Hassan Whiteside, after the center exited Game 3 against the Toronto Raptors with an apparent knee injury.
The 7-footer is considered “day-to-day” after an MRI revealed a sprained right MCL.

Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald has also noted that the Golden State Warriors’ Steph Curry has missed two weeks after being diagnosed with the same injury and if Whiteside misses that much time, he would miss the rest of the Eastern Conference semifinals and more.
