The Miami Heat traded guard Zoran Dragic to the Boston Celtics on Monday, along with a 2020 second-round draft pick and cash considerations, in exchange for a protected 2019 draft pick.
The Heat are trying to trim their salary and luxury-tax bill, already trading guard Shabazz Napier to the Orlando Magic.
Dragic split last season between the Heat and Phoenix Suns, appearing in 16 games (one start), averaging 1.8 points in 4.7 minutes. He previously spent time with Unicaja Malaga in Spain, appearing in 22 Euroleague games where he averaged 10.9 points, 2.7 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 22.5 minutes while shooting 41.3 percent from the field.
Dragic was acquired by the Heat on Feb. 19, along with his brother, Goran, in a three-team trade.
Goran Dragic signed a five-year, $85 million deal with the Heat earlier this month.
