triple double with blocks incoming?

dude could be the best C in the NBA if he could pass a bit more. Has it all. Size, blocks/intimidation, rebounds, individual offense.

Wiggins was half an inch away from dunking so hard on Whiteside there would have been a hashtag.

Unless the Knicks hit some injury problems the pick is going to suck.

In less than 30 minutes no less. Ridiculous.

The inevitable "WE COULDA HAD WHITESIDE" cries will come. But there's no guarantee he would have played like this for the Raptors. He certainly looked a lot less impactful during Summer League.

ESPN ranked him something like 70-80th. I was surprised.
He is so physically gifted and imposing.

he just kinda exploded out of nowhere last year. He looked completely different for the Raptors SL team. physically imposing, but slow and bulky and not really effective.
