As we near that part of the year where the NBA rumor mill goes berserk, there may be a bit of action prior to the July free agency blitz. Miami Heat big man Hassan Whiteside has recently been hinting more than ever that he may want to leave the team. Ironically enough, or maybe not so much, the place he seems to want to be is the place that he calls home.
The mercurial big man is from Gastonia, North Carolina, one of the surrounding cities of Charlotte,North Carolina, specifically within a 30 minute drive or so.
