Jimmy Butler, Miami Heat power forward, has attracted the attention of three teams who are keen on trading for him as per the latest NBA rumors. Butler joined the Heat back in 2019 and is a six-time All-Star. The well-performing star recently decided to exercise his $52 million option for the next NBA season.
According to Brett Siegel, Nan BA insider, the Phoenix Suns, the Milwaukee Bucks, and the Golden State Warriors will try to get Butler on their squads. Meanwhile, Butler is still in his seven-game suspension as a result of him not keeping up with the team’s code of conduct.
“There are three teams that have shown genuine interest in trading for Butler this season: Suns, Bucks, and Warriors. It will be interesting to see if Riley gives into just getting whatever he can for Jimmy now or wait until the offseason.” Brett Siegel tweeted through his X account.

Jimmy Butler’s Ex-Girlfriend Kaitlin Nowak Calls Out Trolls
On another note, Jimmy Butler’s ex-girlfriend Kaitlin Nowak recently called out trolls who have been abusing her on her social media pages. Nowak and Butler are currently engaged in a dispute regarding child support over the son they share together. The abuse mainly started after Nowak put up a birthday post for her back in November.
Fans of Jimmy Butler took to the comments section to bash Nowak for battling it out with Butler in the courts for child-support reasons. Katilin Nowak took the abuse in stride and hit back at them with a sarcastic response.
“Hey guys! Despite the really thought-provoking discussion taking place in my comments, let’s move that to literally any photo other than the ones with our children in them. Better yet, you can join the men in my DMs expressing their grievances. Keep up the great work, guy; loving the energy! Xx” Kaitlin Nowak posted on her Instagram story.
Despite the ongoing legal battle between the two, Jimmy Butler has never discussed this in public. In fact, Butler has not been the one to disclose much information, and not much is known about his personal life.
