Zydrunas Ilgauskas has turned down an offer from the Cleveland Cavaliers and will instead join LeBron James with the Miami Heat.

The Heat has a need for size and experience on its frontline.  The team is nearly capped out after signing James, Chris Bosh and Mike Miller, while retaining Dwyane Wade and Udonis Haslem.

Ilguaskas' agent said the player hopes to be part of the Cavs' organization after his retirement.
