Extra on this storyline
Dru: “Primarily [the Warriors are] making an attempt to commerce Andrew Wiggins & some draft picks [for a star], that’s simply not going to get them very far. A minimum of it hasn’t. I’ll say, I feel Miami was keen to try this deal for Jimmy Butler. Let’s see if by Thursday that will get revisited.” @Brian Windhorst -via Twitter / February 4, 2025
Chris Haynes: Sources: Jimmy Butler’s camp has repeatedly advised Warmth he’s in form, wholesome and able to proceed his profession and transfer previous this instantly. Their messaging to Warmth has been to barter finest deal potential and as soon as in purple zone, if that crew is granted permission by MIA to talk with Butler’s rep to debate his longterm future, that dialogue could be welcomed. Up to now, no crew has requested for permission. -via x.com / February 4, 2025
