Hassan Whiteside missed his first game of the season on Monday and is likely to miss at least one more game.

Whiteside can't remember when he banged his right knee in Sunday's win but he felt pain during the plane ride home and the next morning.

"It's just a lot of soreness right now," Whiteside said. "I really feel like I can't really do anything as far as running or jumping or anything."

Whiteside doesn't believe the injury will be a long-term issue.

"I'm kind of figuring that out," he responded when asked if it might be a bone bruise. "It's under the knee cap, around the patella tendon."
