Stoudemire will play Friday against the Pacers Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sentinel reports.

Analysis:

After not playing for a while because of an illness and to rest, Stoudemire is officially active for Friday's game. With Josh McRoberts (knee) out to rest his knee and Hassan Whiteside (ankle) a game-time decision, Stoudemire may be in line to get some run, but will likely be limited in his production.
