The Miami Heat will have Amar'e Stoudemire back in the lineup Friday as they take on the Indiana Pacers, according to the South Florida Sun Sentinel's Ira Winderman.

The 33-year-old big man has played in only two of the Heat's 20 games this season, restricted by lingering knee issues.

The six-time All-Star - who's averaging six points and two rebounds in his two games - may be called upon by head coach Erik Spoelstra as forward Josh McRoberts won't play, while center and emerging star Hassan Whiteside is questionable.
