Miami Heat center Hassan Whiteside has made business cards to remind people to vote him to the 2016 All-Star Game.
The NBA All-Star Game has become a popularity contest, so that means any player that wants to go to the All-Star Game in 2016, has to step up their campaign efforts to get there.
While some will get there on name alone, others looking to make it for the first time have to take a different approach and get the people on their side.
Like any grassroots campaign, there has to be some form of a message sent. Miami Heat center Hassan Whiteside is taking his grassroots campaign to a professional level, by making business cards with the instructions on how to vote him into the All-Star Game in Toronto.

Whiteside has become a dominant force in the paint for the Heat and he is clearly deserving of the conversation to be in contention for a spot on the Eastern Conference team.
His methods of making business cards are simple and effective. Thousands of those can be printed out with ease and be given out to people to vote for him.
The push to get in the All-Star Game is reaching a critical turn as it draws near, which has players stepping up their efforts to get in the big game.
