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) will attempt to play Tuesday versus the Hornets, the Associated Press reports.
After he was kicked in the foot Saturday, Andersen was held out of Sunday's game against the Pacers, but two days of rest is apparently enough to get him back in the lineup. He'll likely come off the bench, though, behind Hassan Whiteside (hand).

Andersen (foot) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's outing against the Hornets, the Miami Herald reports.
Anderson was gutting out a calf injury before he was kicked in the foot Saturday against the Pistons, which forced his departure. He subsequently sat out Sunday, and his status is up in the air in the short term.

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.

Andersen (calf) will get the start at center Tuesday.
The Heat are very banged up, with Luol Deng and Udonis Haslem ruled out and Hassan Whiteside attempting to play through an in injury off the bench. Still, Andersen is a low-upside fantasy option even as a starter.
