Heat's Hassan Whiteside: Limited at practice

Whiteside failed to go through a complete practice Wednesday due to general soreness, Ethan Skolnick of the Miami Herald reports.

The nature of the soreness is unclear at this time, but Whiteside still seems more likely than not to play in Thursday's matchup with the Hornets. The mercurial center has played at least 30 minutes in five of his last six games and is coming off of an 18-point, 10-rebound performance in Monday's win over the Nuggets.
