Christopher Claus "Chris" Andersen (born July 7, 1978), nicknamed "Birdman", is an American professional basketball player who currently plays for the Miami Heat of the NBA.

Andersen was born in Long Beach, California, grew up in Iola, Texas, and played one year at Blinn College. He went undrafted in the 1999 NBA Draft and began his professional career in the Chinese Basketball League and the American minor leagues. He then played in the NBA for the Denver Nuggets and the New Orleans Hornets. The 6 ft 10 in (2.08 m), 228 lb (103 kg; 16.3 st) center/power forward received a two-year ban from the NBA in 2006 for violating the league's drug policy, but was reinstated on March 4, 2008, and re-signed with the Hornets the next day. He returned to Denver later in 2008, and remained with them until 2012. He signed with the Heat in January 2013.

Andersen is known for brightly colored tattoos on his arms, chest, neck, back, hands and legs. He showed off those tattoos in PETA's "Ink Not Mink" ad campaign to protest the fur industry.
