“It was definitely the loyalty from the fans and from the team,” said the Texas native (Chris Andersen) who signed a two-year, $10.3 million contract with the Heat last month. “That had a big part of it. And it’s matter of me ending my career in a place that I’d be happy at and am familiar with.”

Having turned 36 on July 7, Andersen said there should be no concerns about his health moving forward, having arrived at Saturday’s event alongside personal trainer Tony Falce.
