It appears as though the Dallas Mavericks attempt to acquire point guard Goran Dragic from the Miami Heat via trade has fallen through, according to Marc Stein of The New York Times.
The Mavericks are huge fans of Goran Dragic but could not take him back in the Miami sign-and-trade with Philadelphia that sends Jimmy Butler to the Heat because Dallas feared losing its flexibility to make additional moves this summer, league sources say
Earlier Sunday, Tim Cato of The Athletic reported that Dragic had been acquired by Dallas, although the return headed back to Miami in the now-nixed deal was unknown.
The Mavericks have traded for Miami's Goran Dragic, multiple sources confirm. Dragic is the only other Slovenian in the league, and was roommates with Luka Doncic during Slovenia's 2017 EuroBasket run.
