A familiar face (or three) may be joining LeBron James in Cleveland.

According to Sam Amico of FOX Sports Ohio, the Cavaliers are nearing a deal with former Miami Heat shooting guard Mike Miller.

"Unless something unforeseeable happens, he will be joining us," a team source told FOX Sports Ohio.

Miller, who spent last season with the Memphis Grizzlies, played with James from 2010 to 2013. 

The Cavs have also spoken to former Heat players Ray Allen and Chris Andersen, Amico reports. 

Allen is mulling retirement, but sources close to the talks told FOX Sports Ohio that he will join the Cavs if he decides to return for another season. 

As for Andersen, Amico reports that the Heat are interested in re-signing the 36-year-old center and are determined to keep him away from the Cavs. Discussions between Andersen and the Cavs are "not serious at this time," one source said.

James is reportedly assisting in the recruitment of all three players.
