For many, this past Thursday marked the end of an era with a fan favorite being traded away to the Miami Heat.
Dragic spent the better part of six seasons in Phoenix, a place he frequently referred to as his second home (outside of his native Slovenia). His lovable accent, his abilities as a left-handed one-man fast break and his always optimistic demeanor made it hard for anyone to cheer against him, Suns fan or otherwise.
During his time in the Valley, the Suns organization saw him grow as a person and as a basketball player. He got married, had a son, went from being Nash’s backup to his successor and transformed from Dragic into a Dragon. Now that his time with the Suns is done, it’s time to take a look back on Goran Dragic’s career in Phoenix and remember his top 10 moments.
Dragic diehards, strap yourselves in, grab a box of tissues and enjoy.
