Jimmy Butler ‘Hasn’t Even Really Started’ To Make Things Uncomfortable For Heat

Jimmy Butler is set to return from suspension for the Miami Heat’s home game against the Denver Nuggets on Friday. Butler isn’t listed on the injury report, which indicates that he’s expected to play. However, it’s clear Butler has no interest in playing for Miami any longer.

In his last two games before being suspended, Butler played with what the Heat deemed to be an unacceptable effort level. That’s made his return to the team interesting, as Butler has shown in the past how uncomfortable he can make things when he’s unhappy.

“Jimmy hasn’t even really started,” said one source close to Butler about how much more uncomfortable he can make things with Miami.

On the flip side, those close to the Heat aren’t sure they even want to see their star player back with the team.

“I don’t know how he can come back to this locker room,” one source close to the team said. Said another, “We don’t want him back.”
