Goran Dragic Comes Off Bench To Open Season
4 years agoMiami Heat point guard Goran Dragic will lead the second unit during Wednesday's season opener versus Orlando, with Jimmy Butler, Tyler Herro, and Duncan Robinson making up the starting backcourt. The presence of Dragic with the bench group does not bode well for Kendrick Nunn's fantasy intrigue to begin the season, although the duo should share ball-handling duties when on the floor together. Dragic excelled in a bench role last year during the regular season, averaging 16.2 points and 5.1 assists per contest. Butler opening the game as the team's PG should pave the way for additional assist opportunities.
