The Slovenian could only play 36 games this year owing to a knee surgery he had back in December, and needless to say, his input to Miami's cause was little-to-none. Starting 22 of the 36 games played, Goran Dragic could only score 13.7 points per game, a big step down from his impressive averages of 20.3 ppg and 17.3 ppg over the last few seasons.

The point-guard's absence due to arthroscopic surgery on his knee left his team without a true PG for the majority of this past season. Miami delegated ball-handling duties to Wade, Johnson, Winslow and Richardson - all of whom failed to prove as effective in the long run.

Dragic's major injury that early in the season came when he was trying to get into his groove, but was quite not feeling it. The team's sub-500 record during their December schedule couldn't get any better in Goran's absence than it could when he was playing.
