In the process of the Miami Heat acquiring star free agent Kyle Lowry, the team had to part ways with fan favorite Goran Dragic.
Heat legend Udonis Haslem dedicated a heartfelt social media post to Dragic.

Dragic, 35, has used the word “brate” in the past which is simply a Slovenian slang word that translates to “bro” or “brother.”
The Heat acquired Dragic from the Phoenix Suns in 2015. Over the course of his time in Miami, he became one of the best point guards in franchise history.
Of course, Haslem has been with Dragic in Miami the entire time. In fact, the 6-foot-3 Dragic has vouched for the Heat icon on numerous occasions.
They competed in the playoffs a handful of times, including their 2020 run to the NBA Finals in the bubble in Orlando, Fla.
Dragic averaged 16.2 points, 5.2 assists and 3.6 rebounds per game as a member of the Heat. The veteran also bid an emotional goodbye to the Heat on Tuesday.
