Steve Mitchell-USA TODAY SportsFirst Star
Whiteside's 19 points only ranked him fourth in the game (behind the second, third, and fourth stars), but he matched it with 19 boards (four offensive), two assists, two blocked shots, and a plus-11 rating. He made six-of-11 shots from the field and seven-of-eight from the line in 34:10 off the bench. His free throw shooting turnaround has been nothing short of remarkable. After making 55.2% of his attempts prior to the all-star break, he has made 28 of his last 30. This was Whiteside's 12th First Star, and his 32nd overall appearance.
