The Miami Heat fined center Hassan Whiteside an undisclosed amount Sunday for "comments detrimental to the team" in response to his remarks Saturday night expressing frustration with his role.
He went on an expletive-laden tirade after Miami's 110-109 overtime loss Saturday to the Brooklyn Nets, when the Heat missed a chance to clinch a playoff spot, saying he should play more and might be better elsewhere.
The team had no additional comment Sunday.
Whiteside didn't play in the final 21 minutes on Saturday -- the last four of the third quarter, then all of the fourth quarter and overtime.
