This 7-foot-tall athlete just landed himself a seven-figure home deal.

Basketball star Hassan Whiteside — a center who has played for pro teams including the Utah Jazz and the Miami Heat — scored a penthouse pad at The Standard Residences, Midtown Miami for $1.2 million.

The two-bedroom, two-bathroom home features a chef’s kitchen, an oversize bath with a double rain shower and light wood plank flooring.

This won’t be his main base, however. Whiteside says he will use the purchase as a pied-à-terre — and that the option to rent it “for as few as 30 days at a time makes it an attractive investment.”

Ryan Kelly, of Douglas Elliman, repped Whiteside in the deal.

The 12-story building — with easy access to the city’s buzzy Wynwood and Design districts — was developed by Carlos Rosso and, upon its 2023 completion, will feature 228 pied-à-terre pads by architecture firm Arquitectonica, with interiors by Urban Robot.

Building amenities include a rooftop pool, a signature restaurant, a gym, an infrared sauna — and fun extras, such as a lounge with a karaoke bar and screening room, co-working spaces and an indoor pickleball court. The property has high-speed elevators and high-speed internet throughout.

There will also be an onsite concierge and access to The Standard’s program of “prefered” pricing at Standard hotels around the world.
