Greg Oden returned to action on Friday March 14.

Greg Oden will be active for Wednesday's game vs. the Nets. He got some rest on the second half of a back-to-back set on Monday. Chris Andersen has played well, so the Heat really won't need Oden much.

Greg Oden will not play against the Wizards on Monday. It's just some rest for Oden and the Heat won't be missing him after Chris Andersen looked great on Sunday during a loss to Chicago.

Greg Oden played six minutes, failed to score and had just one rebound in Thursday's loss. He sat out Tuesday as a precaution, but isn't getting enough minutes to have any fantasy value.

Greg Oden, who sat out Tuesday's game as a precaution, will be available vs. the Spurs on Thursday. The Heat didn't want Oden to play in back-to-back games, even though he's only been getting a handful of minutes, but he hasn't suffered any setbacks. Miami brought him on board to provide depth and size during the playoffs, and he's not a fantasy option in any leagues.

Greg Oden will sit out Tuesday's game as a precaution. Oden only played five minutes on Monday but the Heat are being extremely careful about his workload, so they'll face Dwight Howard and the Rockets without Oden's help. He hasn't blocked a shot in 48 minutes over his past six appearances, just one more reason to ignore him in fantasy leagues.

In a recent interview Erik Spoelstra praised Greg Oden's play. "He's a smart, heady player that's picked up our system in a short period of time... and he's been putting in a tremendous amount of work behind the scenes, just to be available every single night like he is," said Spoelstra. It's nice to hear positive things about the former No. 1 overall pick, however, Oden is not a fantasy option in any league.

Greg Oden played 13 minutes in his first start since the 2009-10 season during a win against the Bulls on Sunday with five points and five boards He still did not look right and his jogs up the court look like he's really laboring through the game. Oden getting a start with his championship-calber team is a feel-good story, but it's not something folks should be monitoring with their fantasy hats on.

Greg Oden will start in place of LeBron James on Sunday vs. the Bulls. This is a shocking development and there's a good chance nobody saw this coming at all. Oden's played in five of Miami's last nine games, averaging 2.2 points, 2.4 boards, 0.6 steals and 0.6 blocks in 7.2 minutes. This is another chapter in a great story for Oden, but he's still unlikely to be a fantasy asset. We'll be watching him closely.

Greg Oden (knee) is expected to be available for Sunday's game. He played a season-high 10 minutes on Thursday without any setbacks. He didn't practice on Saturday, instead receiving extra treatment while doing some individual workouts, but coach Erik Spoelstra said that "everything's been good" since Oden joined the active rotation.
