VIDEO: Hassan Whiteside outmuscles Derrick Favors for posterizer
Steve Mitchell / USA TODAY Sports
The Utah Jazz really missed having shot-blocker extraordinaire Rudy Gobert to contend with Miami Heat center Hassan Whiteside.
Gobert missed Thursday's game with an ankle injury, which left the smaller Derrick Favors to body up on Whiteside. And while the 6-foot-10, 240-pound Favors is no small figure, he was also no match for the 7-foot Whiteside.
Whiteside trapped Favors deep in the paint, before serving up a nasty facial.
