It remains to be seen if Jimmy Butler will keep this look for the entire season. That seems unlikely, but it would definitely be interesting to see Butler consistently hoop with his “emo” hair.
This past season, Jimmy Butler averaged 22.9 points, 5.9 rebounds, and 5.3 assists per game for the Miami Heat, making the All-NBA Second Team. It will be interesting to see how well he does next season for the squad, and he has shown no signs of slowing down thus far.
Jimmy Butler Sent A Message To Damian Lillard After He Got Traded To Bucks
This summer, the Miami Heat spent a lot of time chasing Damian Lillard on the trade market. However, the superstar ended up getting traded to the Milwaukee Bucks instead. Recently, Butler sent a message to Lillard stating that he still plans on beating Lillard, Giannis Antetokounmpo, and Bucks coach Adrian Griffin on the way to the championship.
“I am happy for Dame … but I’m gonna go beat Dame, Giannis, and Adrian Griffin on our way to a title.”

It is clear that Jimmy Butler is happy that Damian Lillard got to join a team that will compete for a championship. However, as a competitor, Butler understands that he will have to defeat Lillard in the playoffs, and is thus focused on that goal as well.
It will be interesting to see whether the Miami Heat and the Milwaukee Bucks end up facing off in the playoffs going forward. It is definitely a real possibility, and that series will be an absolute war between the two franchises.
