Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler recently shut down the possibility of joining the Los Angeles Lakers
Butler was referring to Sparks rookie Cameron Brink, who also wears No. 22, but it didn't stop the internet from buzzing. He shut down any possibility of joining the Los Angeles Lakers before things got out of control with a video on the Sparks' Instagram page.
"First and foremost, y'all see this shirt/jersey I’m wearing right now. 22 purple and gold says Brink, not Butler, unfortunately. Sorry LA fans," Butler said. "But hey, shoutout to you, Cam. Thank you for all the love and support."The Lakers were never rumored as a landing spot for Butler, and rightfully so. The organization does not hold assets enticing enough to draw him away from the Heat's front office, let alone pay him a maximum extension.
The good news for the Heat is Butler's newfound trade attention is drawing the spotlight off guard Tyler Herro, who has seen his name in rumors for multiple years.Anthony Pasciolla is a sports writer who has contributed to FanNation's Inside the Heat since June 2023. He also works as a contributing writer for Basketball News. He has experience in photography, content creation, and graphic design.
