    Miami Heat center Hassan Whiteside will miss his second straight game against the Toronto Raptors in the Eastern Conference semifinals because of a strained MCL in his right knee.

    Speaking on a conference call Tuesday, coach Erik Spoelstra said Whiteside did not travel with the team for Wednesday's Game 5 at Air Canada Centre (8 p.m., TNT). Instead, Whiteside stayed behind for “therapy and rest.” There was no update on his condition.

    Whiteside, the Heat’s top rebounder and field goal percentage leader during the postseason, has been sidelined since the second quarter of Game 3 when he collided with teammate Luol Deng and Raptors guard Kyle Lowry.

    Whiteside is out indefinitely, but is listed as day-to-day.
