Hassan Whiteside Gobbles Up 22 Rebounds, Blocks Seven Shots
5 years agoPortland Trail Blazers center Hassan Whiteside posted his 10th straight double-double on Saturday with a 16-point, 22-rebound effort against Minnesota. He also had seven blocks, two assists and one steal for a monster line. Whiteside, who shot 6-for-9 in the game, has pulled down 20-plus rebounds twice in his last three appearances. He is averaging a double-double for the year with 15.4 points and 13.4 rebounds. Only three guys in the league are averaging more rebounds, while Whiteside leads the league in blocks with 2.7 per game. He's enjoying a really good run right now, and it should continue on Monday against a Pelicans team that's allowed centers to hit 61.5 percent of their shots against them.
