Reports: Phoenix Suns very close to pairing Zoran Dragic with his brother Goran Dragic

The Van Arsdale twins also played for the Suns for 1 year back in the 70's for the Suns. Weird how many brothers have played for them.

 

You'd like to think this could drive Bledsoe to accept a different deal than the absolute max and a SnT. That appears to be the only way Houston will get him.

 

He's a 2/3 hybrid. I still count him as a guard.

 

And we are the only other team that can offer Dragic a 5th year.

 

[rQUOTEr]The Suns have expressed interest in Goran Dragic's younger brother, along with Cleveland, Dallas, Indiana, Sacramento and San Antonio. Zoran Dragic, 25, is supposed to report this weekend for his new contract extension with Spanish club Unicaja Malaga but he does have an NBA escape clause to leave this year. It includes a $1.1 million buyout, of which an NBA team could contribute a maximum of $600,000.

Because he was undrafted in 2011, there is no limit on what a salary for the younger Dragic could be. His salary would need to be more than $2 million to justify sacrificing $500,000 of his own money in the buyout and walking away from a Malaga contract that would pay him about $1.4 million this year, along with most of his living expenses.

Zoran, a 6-foot-5 shooting guard, just teamed with Goran to helped 13th-ranked Slovenia reach the World Cup quarterfinals before losing to the United States. Zoran averaged 12.9 points, 4.0 rebounds and 1.4 steals in 26.3 minutes per game of seven World Cup contests. He shot 50 percent from the field, including 43 percent from 3-point range.

Zoran can be similar to watch as a relentless worker with a left-handed stroke but he has a better defensive reputation than does Goran, and is bigger.

Zoran's presence in Phoenix would be a considerable help to the Suns' hopes of retaining Goran next year, when he can become a free agent, but Goran already has expressed a desire to remain with the Suns. Adding Zoran would also further load up a Suns backcourt that already has Goran, Isaiah Thomas, Gerald Green, Archie Goodwin, Tyler Ennis and, it is assumed, Eric Bledsoe.

Zoran averaged 10.6 points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.3 assists with 43 percent shooting last season for Malaga.

is this happens, could make it tough for rocket girl, she might become suns girl

 

Bledsoe, Thomas, Ennis
Goran, Goodwin, Zoran
Tucker, Green, Warren
Markieff, Marcus, Toliver
Plumlee, Len, Brown

Do you even depth bro?

 

Yummy assests

 

the reason why Dragic left Rockets, because we didn't sign his brother.

So now Suns doesn't want to make the same mistake.

 

They need to get the Lopez twins now

 

Or at least Mason Plumlee.

 

Um, no.

The fact that they got Zoran Dragic means that the Suns aren't giving up his bro Dragic any time soon. Sorry rocket fans, and fake insiders.

 

I heard Bima mention that, I'm still unsure how it works

 

They could do what the Lakers did in the Pau/Marc Gasol trade, it's not exactly analogous, but it could still be that Gogi is shipped off. Unlikely as hell, but it could happen.

All your guards are belong to us. Phoenix.

 

Nope, only the Suns can give him 5 years.

 

How is that possible? Not only is he not with us, but Harden is already our designated 5th year player, right?

 

How many guards do that need? My goodness.

 

Signed for 2 years, $3.5 MM
