For the second time this month, Jimmy Butler is gearing up for his return from a suspension.

Per the Miami Herald's Barry Jackson, Butler is expected to rejoin the Miami Heat as they face the Orlando Magic on Monday after his two-game suspension ended following Saturday's game.

The Heat suspended Butler for two games on Wednesday due to a "continued pattern of disregard of team rules, insubordinate conduct and conduct detrimental to the team, including missing today's team flight to Milwaukee."

It marked the second suspension Butler received since requesting a trade on Jan.
