The Heat will be replacing one high-minute small forward with another by signing Luol Deng after losing LeBron James. Over the last four seasons, Deng has averaged the second-most minutes per game in the NBA.


Free-agent swingman Luol Deng is joining the Miami Heat, his agents Herb Rudoy and Ronald Shade confirmed to ESPN.com's Marc Stein.


It is a two-year, $20 million contract with a player option after this coming season, sources told Stein.


The Heat plan to team Deng with the freshly re-signed Chris Bosh and soon-to-be-reupped Dwyane Wade.


Dallas and Atlanta had been in the hunt for Deng, as was Phoenix, who jumped into the mix on Saturday, according to sources. Deng was traded from Chicago to Cleveland in January after years of trade rumors.
