Andersen will remain the Heat's starting center Tuesday at the Lakers, the Miami Herald reports.

Analysis:

Coach Erik Spoelstra made the announcement Monday, even though Andersen hasn't aided to winning ways in six games since Chris Bosh returned to action. While Andersen has averaged six points (on 59 percent shooting), five rebounds, 1.2 blocks, and one assist in 21 minutes during that span, Spoelstra said that the emerging Hassan Whiteside will be a part of the starting five after halftime going forward, which could hinder Andersen's value.
