Anderson recorded four points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt), five assists, three rebounds, three steals and two blocks in 25 minutes in Monday's 106-90 win over the Wizards.
Anderson had an all-around performance Monday, facilitating open shots and playing disruptive defense. His playing time has been inconsistent and scattered, but the 31-year-old veteran has played well recently when given extended minutes. In nine games since being traded to the Heat, Anderson is averaging 4.4 points, 3.1 rebounds and 1.7 assists in 13.8 minutes per game.

Heat's Kyle Anderson: Double-double in Thursday's start
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: Held scoreless in debut
Rotowire
Anderson produced zero points (0-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and three rebounds over 10 minutes during Monday's 103-85 loss to the Celtics.
Anderson made his Miami debut Monday, but handled a minor role with the second unit. The Heat were without Tyler Herro and Jaime Jaquez due to illnesses Monday, so Anderson could end up being cut from the rotation if both players are able to return to action Wednesday at Oklahoma City.

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: 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.
Anderson (glute) is not included on the Warriors' injury report for Saturday's game against the Lakers.
Before missing the last five games with left gluteal bursitis, Anderson had seen action in each of the Warriors' first seven games of January, averaging 6.7 points, 3.6 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.9 blocks in 18.0 minutes per contest. Though the Warriors will be without Jonathan Kuminga (ankle) and Draymond Green (calf) on Saturday, Anderson may not necessarily be returning to a sizable role in the Golden State frontcourt. During Anderson's recent absence, Gui Santos and Moses Moody have seen elevated playing time and have impressed in their opportunities, so head coach Steve Kerr could elect to prioritize them ahead of a healthy Anderson.

Anderson is a new addition to the injury report, and the severity of his hamstring injury is still unknown.

In the event he is sidelined, expect Gui Santos to see extended playing time.
