Noah (ankle) will play Sunday against the Heat, K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Analysis:

This news is not a surprise since the big man was probable coming into the game, and was able to play through the ankle injury Friday against the Mavs. Even though he's good to play, it would not be a surprise to see Noah come up short of his 30 minutes per game average this season, as the ankle problem is likely still lingering.
