Dragic started the season on the Toronto Raptors' roster before he was sent to the San Antonio Spurs at the NBA trade deadline. Shortly after joining San Antonio, he had his contract bought out. The Los Angeles Lakers, Golden State Warriors, L.A. Clippers, Chicago Bulls and Milwaukee Bucks all were considered suitors for the former All-Star guard, ESPN reported. Playing in his 14th NBA season, Dragic averaged eight points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.8 assists across five games for the Raptors, who allowed Dragic to work out away from the team until a trade could be found.

He started 16 playoff games and averaged 16 points during the Miami Heat's run to the NBA Finals in 2020 before a plantar fasciitis injury sidelined him. In 872 career games with the Phoenix Suns, Houston Rockets, Heat and Raptors, Dragic has averaged 13.9 points, 4.8 assists and 3.1 rebounds. He was an All-Star selection in 2018 and was the league's Most Improved Player in 2014. *upi
