Zoran Dragic

Fantasy Impact

This move was expected the day the Celtics traded for Zoran Dragic. Dragic played for the Heat and the Suns last season and played in 16 games and averaged 1.8 points in 4.7 minutes per game over that span. Dragic may end up back overseas if he does not get an invite to a camp during preseason.

Celtics have acquired guard Zoran Dragic from the Heat on Monday. Dragic, alongwith a future second round pick, was swapped for a heavily-protect second round pick in a salary-dumping move for Miami. Dragic could be waived soon.

Fantasy Impact

Dragic, who has been well-known not for his basketball talent but for his relationship to Goran Dragic, won't likely make a Celtics roster that's already stacked with guards. Fantasy owners can ignore him.

Zoran Dragic scored a career-high 22 points with three boards, two dimes, two steals and a three treys in 41 minutes against the Sixers on Wednesday.
