July 14, (THAINDIAN NEWS) LeBron James would not feel lonely in his new team Miami Heats as he would be with some old pals. The new player to join the Miami Heats reportedly is Zydrunas Ilgauskas, who is all set to join the team later this week. The former center player for the Cleveland Cavaliers has earlier said to media source that he is “looking into [the] option” to join LeBron James. The representative of the player said on Tuesday that the player had agreed to a two-year contract with the Miami Heats team and is expected to sign the contract papers later this week. Herb Rudoy said that the two-year deal would have an option for the second season. However, nothing is known as of yet about the proposed amount that the player will be receiving from the team for the tenure of two years.
The 7-foot-3 Lithuanian player Zydrunas Ilgauskas according to many sports analysts will bring some changes into the basketball court position of the existing and the new players included in the team. According to them, Chris Bosh will get to play some power forward this year while Zydrunas Ilgauskas will unexpectedly take charge of the center.
The player who had played a crucial role in the Cleveland Cavalier’s team will no doubt create a void in the team that he left behind. This year Shaquille O’Neal of the Cleveland Cavaliers’ team has also entered free agency and there are likely chances that he would not be returning to his previous team. In such a case there has been created a need for a center player in the Cleveland Cavaliers.
