Hassan Whiteside Reportedly Signs With New NBA Team

August 4, 2021 by The Spun

Sacramento Kings center Hassan Whiteside passes the ball.

Veteran center Hassan Whiteside is reportedly on the move yet again heading into the 2021-22 season.

According to reports from ESPN NBA insider Adrian Wojnarowski, the 7-foot big man is taking his talents to Salt Lake City to play for the Utah Jazz.

Free agent C Hassan Whiteside has agreed to a deal with the Utah Jazz, @excelbasketball agent Sean Kennedy tells ESPN.

Whiteside just completed a one-year, $2.3 million deal with the Sacramento Kings —  the same team that drafted him with the No. 33 overall pick back in 2010. Through 36 games and four starts this past season, the nine-year NBA vet logged just 8.1 points and 6.0 rebounds per game — marking the first year of his career without averaging a double-double since his first two seasons in the league with Sacramento.

Despite his declining production in 2020, the two-time NBA blocks leader should be a solid addition to the Utah depth chart behind Rudy Gobert.

Whiteside will join Turkish veteran Ersan Ilyasova and second-year big man Udoka Azubuike behind the three-time defensive player of the year — hopefully providing a more stable presence down low when Gobert is off the floor.

In 2020-21, Ilyasova and Azubuike combined for just 4.9 points and 2.6 rebounds per game as reserve big men.

With the Portland Trail Blazers in 2019-20, Whiteside averaged a massive 15.5-point, 13.5-rebound double-double. The Jazz would certainly love to see a return to that level of play as they look to make another deep playoff run in 2021-22.
