1. Goran Dragic

391 games played

It's only right that The Dragon will be crowned as the best player to wear number 7 for the Heat. Dragic spent seven seasons with the team, so this spot is fitting. He's the only player here to make an all-star game with Miami. Funnily enough, his All-Star season wouldn't be the pinnacle of his Heat career.

That was a tremendous honor in 2018, but in 2020, Dragic stole Heat fan's hearts. His dazzling playoff performance in the 2020 Orlando bubble was pivotal in Miami making the Finals. Dragic was unconscious, making tough shots seem like a walk in the park. To this day, many Heat fans argue that Miami would have beaten the Los Angeles Lakers in the Finals had Dragic not gone down with torn plantar fascia in his left foot.

His play was worthy of the hype. Dragic's 6,348 points over his seven-year Heat career is the level we hope Kel'el Ware can reach. Hopefully, he can surpass those numbers and help bring the Heat back into contention.
