The Miami Herald reports that the Heat are aggressively looking for another two-guard or a center to add to their rotation, and free agent Leandro Barbosa and Emeka Okafor are among the players they're interested in:

The Heat is serious about adding another shooting guard and a big man if it can find two good ones willing to take the veteran's minimum. After recently working out Jordan Hamilton who signed with Toronto and Chris Douglas-Roberts, the Heat also has inquired about Leandro Barbosa and Jordan Crawford, who both hold appeal to Miami.
Among power rotation players, the Heat has shown interest in Emeka Okafor and has considered Ekpe Udoh. Preliminary inquiries were made on Andray Blatche and Jason Maxiell. Agent David Falk said he talked to the Heat aboutElton Brand but that Brand is unlikely to end up here.
