Jimmy Butler’s days with the Miami Heat seem numbered, but don’t expect the Golden State Warriors to get in the mix.
Trade rumors have been lingering around Butler since the summer, but the 36-year-old made his trade request public with an incendiary press conference on Thursday. The Heat responded on Friday by suspending him for seven games due to “conduct detrimental to the team.” Fed up with Butler’s antics, the Heat said they “will listen to trade offers,” according the Associated Press, a reversal from their earlier stance.
