Some concerns in the backcourt for the Miami Heat may have been settled, just a little bit. The Heat have agreed to terms with their starting point guard, Goran Dragic.
Close to their target deal they wanted for Dragic ended up being exactly what both sides agreed upon. Dragic will be coming back to the Miami Heat for a 5-year, $90 million deal.

From Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports.
Goran Dragic has reached agreement on a five-year, $90 million contract wtih the Miami Heat, league sources told Yahoo Sports.
Dragic’s deal will include a player option after the fourth year, league sources said.
Locking in Dragic just means great things for the Miami Heat but possible horrible things for Dwyane Wade. Miami has one half of their starting backcourt locked up but the issue is, Wade is also looking to get a big deal but the Heat want to avoid paying into the luxury tax. Something that seems impossible to do unless Wade moves far away from the $20 million he wants this summer.
