Miami Heat point guard Goran Dragic isn't thinking about his 2020 free agency and says he's focused on the upcoming season.
Dragic has one year left on his deal with the Heat. The lefty will make $19.2 million in 2019-20 and become an unrestricted free agent in the summer of 2020 unless Miami gives him an extension during the season:
“If I’m honest, I don’t even think about it, because I’m more in the present, because I’m trying to get back to being healthy this year,” Dragic said, via Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald. “So this is my priority, just to stay focused and do my job. And when the time is going to come, then I’m going to think about my future. So, it doesn’t make sense to think it right now, because the season still didn’t start. And I haven’t felt how my body is going to react. So, we’ll see.”
Goran Dragic averaged 13.7 points, 3.1 rebounds and 4.8 assists last season while shooting 41.3 percent from the field, 34.8 percent from beyond the arc and 78.2 percent from the free-throw line.
Miami's starting point guard recorded four double-doubles and one triple-double in 36 games. The Heat were 16-20 when Dragic was in the lineup. He only played in 36 games because of a knee injury. The balky knee required surgery in December.
The Heat will look to make the playoffs this season after missing it last year. For that to happen, Dragic has to stay healthy and play like an All-Star again.
