Andersen (ankle) will not play Sunday against the Bulls.

Analysis:

As expected, Andersen will remain out - he hasn't played since Nov. 23 - as he shoots for a return Tuesday in Brooklyn. With Chris Bosh (calf) and Josh McRoberts (knee) also ruled out, the Heat will be shorthanded in the frontcourt Sunday.
