Stoudemire (knee) went unused in Tuesday's loss to the Timberwolves.

Analysis:

Despite being deemed available for Tuesday's game after battling knee soreness essentially all season, Stoudemire failed to return to the court, so he'll retain the day-to-day tag until he plays again. It's assumed that Stoudemire is healthy enough to play if needed, but the extensive time he's already missed has probably made coach Erik Spoelstra reluctant to use the veteran forward. Stoudemire has made just one appearance over the Heat's 10 games on the season.
