Andersen (thigh) will return to action Friday against the Pacers, the South Florida Sun-Sentinel reports.

Analysis:

After missing the last two games with a left thigh contusion, Andersen will return to the Heat's rotation for Game 6 against the Pacers. Although Rashard Lewis has seen a lot of playing time in Andersen's place, it looks like Lewis will remain a key piece of the Heat's rotation as he remains in the starting lineup, which could cut into Andersen's minutes a bit in the frontcourt.
