Days ago, the Miami Heat suspended star forward Jimmy Butler indefinitely, marking his third suspension in recent weeks. Jimmy Butler walked out of a shootaround after learning he’d come off the bench. His initial seven-game suspension was due to “detrimental conduct,” followed by a two-game penalty for missing a team flight.
Having missed nine of the last 12 games, Jimmy Butler has requested a trade, and the Heat are looking into deals before the February 6 NBA trade deadline.
