NBA Eastern Conference team Miami Heat has signed the Dragic brothers, Goran and Zoran, from Phoenix Suns.
Having added the Slovenian brothers to their roster at the deadline, Heat President Pat Riley also announced that they traded their small forward Danny Granger to the Suns as well as the two future first-round draft picks.
"We are incredibly pleased to take another step in getting the Miami Heat back to real championship prominence with the acquisition of Goran Dragic," said Riley.
"Goran is an All-NBA player, including the most improved player last season, and we felt that once he became available, we would do all that we could to acquire him. We feel he is the perfect complement to the players we have on the team", Riley added.
"We are also pleased to bring his brother, Zoran, into the Heat family. He had a great summer during international play and it’s great to have a brother-brother duo and someone that can help us in our rotation", Miami Heat boss remarked.
Twenty-eight-year-old guard Goran Dragic boasts 16.2 point, 3.6 rebound and 4.1 assist averages this season while his 25-year-old brother Zoran has only played in six games so far.
