Report: Jordan Brand, Jimmy Butler Mutually Agree to Part Ways to End Endorsement Deal

Miami Heat star forward Jimmy Butler and Jordan Brand have mutually agreed to part ways on their footwear and apparel sponsorship, which was set to expire in Sept. 2020, according to ESPN's Nick DePaula. Butler is now open to talks with other brands that could kick in before All-Star Weekend.

Butler was the final draft pick in the 2011 NBA draft and was selected by the Chicago Bulls out of Marquette, which is a Jordan Brand school for basketball. He signed a contract with Adidas as a rookie but reportedly took a pay cut to join Jordan Brand by 2014.
