Jason Kidd Shoots At Former Miami Heat Center And Game 1 Proved It

Through six playoff games this season, Gobert would only average 12 points per game, though he shot nearly 64 percent from the field in the process. The former Miami Heat seven-footer, Whiteside, would only average 1.8 points per game on just under 42 percent shooting, though he also only averaged about 11 minutes per contest as well.

If those numbers don’t do the trick, the Utah Jazz numbers, then the Phoenix Suns centers might.

Through seven games this postseason, Suns center, Deandre Ayton, is averaging 21 points, nearly 10 rebounds, and just over two assists across almost 35 minutes per game.

His main backup, JaVale McGee, is averaging nearly eight points, nearly four boards, and almost an assist per game in almost 11.5 minutes per contest. Monday night was no different.

They would finish with a combined 29 points, 11 rebounds, two assists, a block, and a steal in 47 minutes played.
