Once again, the rumor mills started to churn. Fans and critics worldwide immediately put on their predicting hats. They opined that the color orange might represent either the New York Knicks or the Phoenix Suns. Meanwhile, as the speculations are going wild now, ESPN’s Brian Windhorst has some unique take on the matter.
Jimmy Butler Might Stay In Miami
In a recent update, ESPN’s Brian Windhorst has opined that Butler might not want to change teams. After all, the fitting farewell for the Heat’s star would be to bid adieu to his NBA career by donning the Miami jersey. “I think Jimmy Butler’s preference would be to sign an extension in Miami.” said Butler on First Take.

However, he also mentioned that the idea might take a backseat due to Pat Riley’s unwillingness to give the nod. As Butler is having a tough time, the Miami Heat will, in all probability, want to trade Butler. Instead, the team will be heavily banking on Bam Adebayo and Tyler Herro in the coming days. Thus, with so many things happening all at once, only time will tell the actual outcome.
