Hassan Whiteside shows off his stitches (VIDEO)

Whiteside is off to a strong start in his second year with the Heat.

Basketball is a game of bumps and bruises. It's a contact sport, even if it's not a collision one. Hassan Whiteside, we can say with confidence, is fully aware of this fact.

Whiteside got cut above his eye during Sunday's game against the Rockets. The gash was bad enough that it needed four stitches. Now, Whiteside is showing off his new threads to the world.
