Heat suspend Jimmy Butler again, this time for 2 games for missing team flight, AP source says
Associated PressJimmy Butler will be suspended by the Miami Heat for the second time in three weeks, a person with knowledge of the decision said Wednesday, a move that adds to the possibility he has already played his final game for the franchise. Butler drew the latest suspension — it is expected to last two games, according to the person who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the team had yet to announce its decision — for missing the Heat’s flight to Milwaukee on Wednesday. The dates for the scheduled games on this Heat road trip coincide with a padel tournament in Miami, one that lists Butler as an honorary chairman and co-captain. The whole truth will come out.” The latest chapter of the Butler-Heat saga comes one day after Phoenix swung a deal with Utah to acquire three first-round draft picks that the Suns are expected to use as pieces in another trade — presumably one that would bring Butler to them.
