The 7-foot-3 Lithuanian watched as the Cavaliers retired his jersey number last season, and returning to Cleveland might be his ultimate goal considering LeBron James' return to the team. Ilgauskas followed James to the Miami Heat in 2010.
Ilgauskas averaged 13.0 points and 7.3 rebounds over 13 NBA seasons, starting 724 games and averaging 27.2 minutes.
