Miami Heat. CHRIS ANDERSEN. C-. <i>Stats: 15 Min, 1-2 FG, 0-0 3FG, 0-0 FT, 3 REB, 1 AST, 1 STL, 0 BLK, 0 TO, 2 PTS </i><br /> Coming off the bench for Hassan Whiteside, Andersen is a 15-minute per game player and that’s about all he can handle at this point in his career.

Still, he was far from Miami’s worst player tonight. You just expect more. Much more.. C
