Jazz's Hassan Whiteside: Minimal role in loss

Whiteside (foot) logged 10 minutes off the bench in Saturday's 111-107 loss to the Warriors, finishing with two points (1-2 FG), two rebounds and one block.

After a four-game absence, Whiteside returned to action in his normal role as the Jazz's backup center, but he saw less playing time than usual with starter Rudy Gobert logging 38 minutes. Whiteside will likely be at less-than-optimal health for the remainder of the season while he contends with a minor bone spur fracture in his foot, but the Jazz don't appear to be considering shutting him down.
