2014-15 Season Stats (6 Games): 2.5 PPG, 3.3 RPG, 0.5 BPG, 17.0 MPG

Like his fellow teammates McRoberts and Granger, Chris Andersen has struggled due to injuries. The Birdman missed five games due to a rib injury.

It’s really an unfair sample size to rank any injured player, but Andersen, deservingly so, got paid over the summer. Andersen signed a two-year, $10 million dollar contract, after a memorable two years with the Heat, where he was signed to a veterans minimum type deal in 2013.

At 36, I’m still confused as to why the Heat gave him so much guaranteed money, but only time will tell.
