In an interesting twist to what was being reported during the last few days, Goran Dragic has reportedly informed the Phoenix Suns that he does not plan on re-signing with the team when he becomes a free agent in the summer.

The Suns now have two options here. They could either trade Dragic to a team of his liking — he’s listed the New York Knicks, Miami Heat, Los Angeles Lakers and Indiana Pacers as his preferred destinations — now in order to get at least a few assets in exchange, or they could roll the dice and wait until the offseason to work a potential sign and trade.

Still, one thing’s for sure. Dragic wants out of Phoenix, whether that comes in the next two days, or in a few months. I mean, Phoenix could still end up calling Dragic’s bluff this summer, but it’d be mighty risky at this point.

Asking Price: Contributing asset, future first-round pick
