The 35-year-old point guard and Precious Achiuwa were acquired by the Raptors from the Heat via a sign-and-trade in exchange for Kyle Lowry. Dragic and Doncic played together for the Slovenian national team before the former retired from international basketball. The duo led their home country to its first-ever EuroBasket gold in 2017. This past season Dragic averaged 13.4 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 4.4 assists per game for the Heat.

Alongside the rumors of Dragic to Dallas, reports surfaced that the Mavs attended the NBA workouts of Lance Stephenson, Isaiah Thomas, and Monta Ellis. Chris Mannix reported that the Mavs were impressed by Stephenson and Thomas’ performances.
