New York, New York - The Brooklyn Nets are set to be bolstered for the final stretch of the NBA regular season with the signing of experienced free agent guard Goran Dragic.

The 35-year-old Slovenian, who has an outstanding postseason record, had interest from several sides including the Los Angeles Lakers, Golden State Warriors, Los Angeles Clippers, Milwaukee Bucks, and Chicago Bulls.

Dragic's agent Billy Duffy told ESPN that the Nets have won the race for his signature, joining for the rest of the season.

The 2018 All-Star offers the Nets capable backcourt size and backup to Kyrie Irving, who is currently only permitted to play road games due to New York City's vaccination mandate.

Dragic played five games for the Toronto Raptors this season before a deadline trade to the San Antonio Spurs, who went on to buy out the former Miami Heat star's contract. He joins his ex-Phoenix Suns teammate Steve Nash. The two played together between 2008 and 2011.

Brooklyn will waive guard Jevon Carter to open up a spot for Dragic in their roster.
