Miami Heat point guard Goran Dragic was killing the Indiana Pacers in the first half of Game 3 on Saturday and Dwyane Wade loved what he saw.
Wade, the best player in Heat franchise history, took to social media and jokingly said Miami should re-sign Dragic at halftime. The lefty becomes an unrestricted free agent this offseason and Wade doesn't want to see the Heat lose the Dragon.
Let’s get that contract done at halftime @MiamiHEAT Sixth Man, Starting PG no problem! 🐉 will do whatever is needed to get buckets! https://t.co/wplzS8s31S

Goran Dragic came off the bench during the regular season 56 times. However, he's been starting in the 2020 playoffs since rookie Kendrick Nunn is recovering from his positive COVID-19 test. The veteran guard made $19.2 million this season and averaged 16.2 points, 3.2 rebounds and 5.1 assists in 59 appearances during the 2019-20 campaign.
Dwyane Wade wasn't able to play in the postseason in his final year in the NBA, so he's excited the Heat are back on the NBA's biggest stage and playing well. Led by Dragic, Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo, Miami is looking to make a Finals run.
However, the Heat first have to win the Eastern Conference, a title many pundits believe will be the Milwaukee Bucks' when it's all said and done. Miami plays Milwaukee really well, though, so it would certainly be fun to watch these two teams go at it in the playoffs.
