The Miami Heat have announced that they suspended Jimmy Butler for seven games for his recent comments about no longer wanting to play in Miami.
Butler said he's lost his "joy" playing basketball in Miami.
"I want to see me get my joy back from playing basketball. Wherever that may be, we'll find out here pretty soon, but I want to get my joy back. I'm happy here, you know, off the court."
The Heat wrote in a statement...
"We have suspended Jimmy Butler for seven games for multiple instances of conduct detrimental to the team over the course of the season and particularly the last several weeks. Through his actions and statements, he has shown he no longer wants to be a part of this team. Jimmy Butler and his representative have indicated that they wish to be traded, therefore, we will listen to offers."
