Heats hunters Jimmy Butler indefinitely in the middle of the commercial demand

Jimmy Butler got out of the way again.

On Monday afternoon, Butler set the Miami heat indefinitely in the middle of his demand for a trade that does not yet have to be met. It is his third suspension at the organization this month.

According to Espn Shams Charania, Butler apparently went out of the shootaround after he had learned that the team would not start him in their game against Orlando Magic. Haywood Highsmith will start in his place. Butler was supposed to return to the team on Monday after serving a two-game suspension.

Butler is now suspended for at least five games, although the team called the suspension indefinitely. The NBA trading period is defined for Thursday, February 6th – a day after Butler would return to the court for the team if the suspension would only take five games.

Bobby Marks from ESPN will cost Butler more than 2.6 million dollars.

This season Butler achieved an average of 17 points, 5.2 rebounds and 4.8 assists per game, his sixth with the heat. On January 3, he was first suspended for seven games for the heat “several behavioral cases for the team”. He returned briefly, but was suspended for two games last week after missing a team flight for a road trip.

Before his first suspension, he made it clear that he wanted Miami and he wasn’t happy there.

The heat initially said that they would not swap butler, but they have been reversed since then and said they are “offered”. He was associated with reports for a possible trade in the Phoenix Suns, and Butler was even seen in the colors of the suns in the colors of the Suns at the beginning of this month. It is unclear whether such a deal will be completed.

This type of behavior is nothing new for Butler. On the way out of this organization, he also ran the relationships with the Minnesota Timberwolves. Obviously, this time he is not only prepared for it, he has already achieved it before he has a clear way.

But if nothing else, Butler remains true to his word. He wants to continue from the heat and do not withdraw – even if this corresponds completely against team culture, which the organization has made proud for decades and ultimately costs millions of dollars. He wants to be finished in Miami.
