Two Dragons are better than one.
The Phoenix Suns are one of the teams that have expressed interest in acquiring Goran Dragic’s brother, Zoran Dragic, according to ESPN.com’s Marc Stein. The team still doesn’t know on whether or not their guard Eric Bledsoe will remain with the team for next season, and if ever he doesn’t—it looks like they are already gearing up for Plan B—Goran’s brother.
However, other teams, reportedly the Indiana Pacers and Sacramento Kings will try to contend for his services as well and prevent the joining together of the Dragic brothers in Phoenix.
But Suns, Pacers and Kings are the teams, sources say, that have expressed most steady interest in recent weeks in Goran's brother Zoran

Zoran, 25, has been averaging remarkable numbers in the World Cup, 13.2 points and 1.5 assists per game—which has greatly contributed to the success of the Slovenian Team in the FIBA World Cup. He’s been playing alongside his brother Goran and has clearly shown good chemistry together as their combination has proved to be such a formidable backcourt force for Slovenia as they dominated the entire group D in this tournament.
An aggressive defender, an excellent penetrator and a good spot-up shooter—Zoran has shown why he’s an NBA-caliber player that many teams will benefit from. It’ll truly be nice to see if Goran’s brother ends up playing in the NBA as well, and especially if they’ll be on the same team.
After seeing the fearsome combination of the Dragic brothers in the World Cup—we may be seeing them as well in the NBA this coming season. Watch out.
