The Miami Heat have reportedly shown an interest in signing free agents Emeka Okafor and Ekpe Udoh.

According to the Miami Herald, the Heat are keen on the two players as they look to add depth to their roster in the defensive department.

Miami have so far tried to add to their front end since the departure of LeBron James, with the franchise already bringing in the likes of Luol Deng, Josh McRoberts and Danny Granger.

The team is also reportedly interested in the signature of guard Leandro Barbosa.
