Andersen (foot) will take the court Thursday against the Bulls, the Associated Press reports.
Andersen's contributions have been mostly negligible of late due to calf and foot injuries. As evidence, he's made four appearances in the Heat's last five games, averaging 3.5 points (on 43 percent shooting), 3.8 rebounds, 1.3 blocks, and 0.8 assists in 16 minutes.

Andersen (foot) is probable for Thursday's game agains the Bulls, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Andersen missed Sunday's game due to the foot injury, but he returned to score six points and grab a pair of rebounds in Tuesday's win over the Hornets. At this point, he has a good chance to play, and the "probable" designation is likely more precautionary than anything else.

Andersen (foot) came off the bench Tuesday and blocked three shots while scoring six points (2-3 FG, 2-3 FT) in 13 minutes.

Andersen (foot) will attempt to play Tuesday versus the Hornets, the Associated Press reports.

Andersen (foot) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's outing against the Hornets, the Miami Herald reports.

Andersen (foot) will not play Sunday against the Pacers, the Palm Beach Post reports.
Andersen has been playing through some calf issues, and he was removed from Saturday's game against the Pistons after being kicked in the foot. It's unclear how bad his injury truly is. Consider him questionable for Tuesday's game against the Hornets.

Andersen left Saturday's game against the Pistons after getting kicked in the foot, and his status for Sunday's game against the Pacers remains unknown.
Andersen was working through a calf injury that recently kept him out of three straight games. He's played enough minutes when Udonis Haslem and other Heat players are sidelined to be worth using in deeper leagues for blocks, but for standard leagues, Andersen seldom plays enough minutes to collect the necessary stats.

Andersen (calf) started Tuesday's loss to the Spurs, grabbing 10 rebounds and scoring four points (2-8 FG) in 24 minutes while adding two steals, two blocks and an assist.
Andersen missed Sunday's game but calf and shoulder injuries but was basically forced to start given the other injuries on the Heat's roster. He's not a very valuable fantasy option, given that he averages less than 20 minutes per game and just 5.4 points and 5.1 rebounds per outing.
Tue Mar 31 201519:26Andersen (calf) will get start at center Tuesday
Andersen (calf) will get the start at center Tuesday.

Andersen (calf) is a game-time decision for Tuesday's contest versus the Spurs, the Miami Herald reports.
The Heat's three options at center are all ailing, with Udonis Haslem out with the flu and Hassan Whiteside also a game-time call due to a laceration on his right hand. Thus, it's unclear who exactly will log the frontcourt minutes Tuesday.

Andersen (calf) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's matchup with the Spurs, Jason Lieser of the Palm Beach Post reports.
Andersen was held out of Sunday's game against Detroit due to minor calf and shoulder injuries, and he's now missed the last three contests. He's been day-to-day for the better part of the last month, and that will likely continue down the stretch. Miami's other center, Hassan Whiteside (hand), is also listed as questionable.
Sun Mar 29 201516:46Andersen (calf) will not play Sunday against Pistons
Andersen (calf) will not play Sunday against the Pistons, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sentinel reports.
Andersen and teammate Hassan Whiteside will both miss Sunday's game, leaving plenty of minutes available in the Miami frontcourt. Look for Michael Beasley to get some extra playing time, along with veteran Udonis Haslem
Fri Mar 27 201518:32Andersen (calf) will not play Friday against Hawks
Andersen (calf) will not play Friday against the Hawks.
Andersen was planning to play Friday, but it appears he is still too sore to take the floor. With Andersen and Hassan Whiteside (finger) both out Friday, Udonis Haslem and Henry Walker figure to see plenty of action Friday night.

Andersen (calf) is questionable for Friday's matchup with the Hawks, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.
Andersen missed Wednesday's game with a calf bruise, but he's been upgraded to questionable Friday. If he plays, he has a good chance to start, as Hassan Whiteside (hand) is currently doubtful to play.
Wed Mar 25 201518:52Andersen (calf) will not play Wednesday
Andersen (calf) will not play Wednesday, Jason Lieser of the Palm Beach Post reports.
Andersen is being ruled out with what the team is calling "multiple contusions," so Miami will be without both of its top centers after Hassan Whiteside cut his hand on the rim Tuesday night in Milwaukee. Dwyane Wade (knee) will also sit out.
Wed Mar 25 201512:31Andersen (calf) questionable for Wednesday's game
Andersen (calf) is questionable for Wednesday's game, Tim Reynolds of the Associated Press reports.
He has been banged up of late, but has been able to play through the injury so far. Udonis Haslem is listed as the starting center with Hassan Whiteside (finger) doubtful, so Anderson may be needed to shoulder a 20-25 minute load in the frontcourt Wednesday if he can muster up the strength.

Andersen (ankle) posted two points, five rebounds, two assists and one block in 19 minutes off the bench against the Raptors.
Andersen entered Friday's game with an ankle injury but managed to assume his normal role off the bench against the Raptors. He should be in the clear moving forward, although the veteran seems to always be dealing with nagging injuries so don't be surprised if coach Erik Spoelstra lets him take a night off in the future.

Andersen (ankle) missed shootaround but is expected to play Friday, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Andersen has been nagged by an ankle issue of late, but he's expected to be available off the bench Friday in Toronto. Andersen is coming off of an 18-point, 14-rebound performance Wednesday, but he's unlikely to approach that production with Hassan Whiteside back.
Wed Mar 11 201523:08Andersen (ankle) scored 18 points (8-9 FG, 2-4 FT) with 14 rebou...
Andersen (ankle) scored 18 points (8-9 FG, 2-4 FT) with 14 rebounds, a steal and a block in 30 minutes during Wednesday's win over the Nets.
With Hassan Whiteside serving a one-game suspension, Andersen was able to step up and have a huge night for the Heat. Expect him to return to his limited bench role on Friday against the Raptors, however.
