Jimmy Butler wants a max contract, and it looks like he wants it from Miami.
The Heat guard has been rumored to be potentially available if he and the team are unable to come to terms on a contract extension. Teams like the Philadelphia 76ers have been linked as potential suitors.
While Butler could be donning a new uniform in in 2024-25, it's not necessarily inevitable. During an appearance on Locked on Heat, Michael Scotto of HoopsHype acknowledged that the Butler and the Heat are not on the same page but referred to it as "posturing" and that ideally a deal would get done.
