However, Jackson says the final decision may take time and only be made in the late summer.

Earlier, Dragic expressed his desire to return to the Heat, saying that he feels like at home in Miami.

"The main desire is to return to Miami," siol.net quoted Dragic. "My home is in Miami, I have both children who go to school there. It really all works out."

"I spent the best seven years of my career there, and I think returning to Miami would be the icing on the cake. That would really be something phenomenal. We'll see," Dragic added.

Dragic played for the Heat since 2015, when he was traded to Miami, and stayed with the team until the end of the 2020-21 season before being involved in the Kyle Lowry trade.

During the 7 seasons with the Heat, Dragic averaged 16.2 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 5.2 assists per game in 391 appearances. He was also named the NBA All-Star during the 2017-18 season.

Last season, the 37-year-old Dragic averaged 6.3 points, 1.4 rebounds, and 2.6 assists per game in 58 appearances for the Chicago Bulls and Milwaukee Bucks.
