Hassan Whiteside will miss the Miami Heat's Saturday game against the Indiana Pacers with a left knee contusion.

Whiteside will be day to day moving forward. The center bumped knees with Nikola Vucevic of the Orlando Magic on Wednesday, coach Erik Spoelstra told the Sun Sentinel's Ira Winderman.

Whiteside had a strong game in the Heat's loss to the Magic, scoring 26 points - including his first career 3-pointer - and pulling down 22 rebounds.
