The Miami Heat are suspending forward Jimmy Butler indefinitely, sources told ESPN on Monday.
It's the third time Butler has been suspended by the Heat in recent weeks and comes after he was expected to return from his second suspension Monday night against the Orlando Magic.
The Heat were planning to have Butler come off the bench moving forward, but Butler responded to the news by walking out of morning shootaround, sources said. The Heat then decided to suspend the disgruntled star indefinitely.
Butler has missed nine of Miami's past 12 games entering Monday because of a pair of suspensions, the first of which was for seven games due to conduct that the Heat deemed detrimental.
