Israel Gutierrez of the Palm Beach Post reports: Still in need of a big body to play behind Alonzo Mourning, the Miami Heat are close to signing third-year forward/center Lari Ketner.

Ketner worked out in Miami along with Terrance Roberson and Jabari Smith, but Ketner seemed to leave the best impression. He is expected to be in Miami for a physical as early as today and sign soon thereafter. Training camp begins Tuesday.
