Anderson ended with eight points (4-6 FG), eight rebounds, six assists and two blocks across 25 minutes during Monday's 117-105 victory over the 76ers.
Bam Adebayo (back) sat this game out, and the Heat were shorthanded again, allowing Anderson to see extended run off the bench. He's certainly trending in the right direction as a fantasy streamer, posting averages of 11.3 points, 6.3 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.8 blocks in 25.3 minutes over his last four games.

Heat's Kyle Anderson: Hits for season-high 19
Rotowire
Anderson racked up 19 points (7-11 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound, one assist and one steal across 24 minutes off the bench during Wednesday's 124-103 victory over the Celtics.
It was his best scoring performance of the season, and just the sixth time in 19 appearances for the Heat that Anderson has scored in double digits. The veteran forward has had trouble establishing himself in Miami's rotation since being acquired from Golden State, but injuries in the frontcourt have given him an opportunity, and he's taking advantage. Anderson has been in the rotation for five straight contests and played at least 20 minutes in four of them, averaging 10.4 points, 2.8 boards, 2.6 assists and 1.0 steals in 21.2 minutes during that span.

Rotowire

His playing time has been inconsistent and scattered, but the 31-year-old veteran has played well recently when given extended minutes.

Heat's Kyle Anderson: Coming off bench Friday
Rotowire

Rotowire
Anderson amassed 15 points (6-10 FG, 3-6 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists and two blocks over 27 minutes during Thursday's 118-113 loss to Dallas.
With Bam Adebayo (knee) and Andrew Wiggins (illness) getting an early start on their All-Star breaks, Anderson slid into the starting five for Miami and delivered his first double-double of the season. The veteran forward was making just his second appearance for the Heat after being sent east from Golden State as part of the Jimmy Butler deal, and it's not clear if Anderson will have a consistent role in the frontcourt rotation when the team is at full strength.

Heat's Kyle Anderson: Starting sans Adebayo
Rotowire
Anderson will enter the starting lineup in Thursday's game against Dallas.
The veteran forward will get the starting nod with Bam Adebayo (knee) sidelined. Anderson made his Heat debut in Monday's loss to the Celtics, during which he posted zero points (0-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and three rebounds over 10 minutes.

Heat's Kyle Anderson: Omitted from injury report
Rotowire
Anderson (trade pending) isn't listed on Miami's injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Celtics.
Anderson hasn't played since Jan. 31. He was in and out of Golden State's rotation before the trade, and it's unclear what his role will be in Miami. However, it's safe to assume he'll operate off the bench and handle fewer than 20 minutes per game if he's part of the rotation.
Heat's Kyle Anderson: Won't make Heat debut Friday
Rotowire
Anderson (recently traded) has been ruled out for Friday's game against Brooklyn.

Heat's Kyle Anderson: Lands in Miami, likely to be re-routed
Rotowire
Anderson was traded to the Heat on Wednesday as part of a deal that sent Jimmy Butler to Golden State. He'll remain in Miami "for now," Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
Initial reports indicated Anderson would be sent to Toronto as part of the deal, but he'll remain in Miami for the short term after the Raptors' portion fell through. Still, the Heat seem to be planning to move Anderson before Thursday's trade deadline.

Raptors' Kyle Anderson: Landing with Toronto
Rotowire
The Raptors are trading for Anderson as part of a five-team deal centered around the Warriors acquiring Jimmy Butler, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
Anderson hasn't been able to carve out a consistent role in Golden State's rotation this season, as he's averaging 5.3 points, 3.1 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 0.7 steals and 0.6 blocks in 15.0 minutes over 36 games (three starts). Although the veteran forward theoretically has a clearer path to playing time with the rebuilding Raptors, there's a chance the team opts to agree to a contract buyout. As it stands, Anderson is set to compete with Ochai Agbaji and Bruce Brown for minutes off Toronto's bench.
Anderson (glute) tallied six points (3-4 FG) and two rebounds across 11 minutes off the bench Tuesday in the Warriors' 114-103 win over the Jazz.
Anderson missed five straight games with left gluteal bursitis before being cleared to return to action ahead of Saturday's 118-108 loss to the Lakers, though the veteran forward didn't play in that contest while head coach Steve Kerr ran out an 11-man rotation. Kerr kept the rotation at 11 men again Tuesday, but Anderson was able to pick up some minutes as a result of Stephen Curry (knee) being held out for the front end of a back-to-back set. Curry should be cleared to play Wednesday against the Thunder, so Anderson could be at risk of moving back outside of the rotation.
