The six-time All-Star har store forventninger til den kommende sæson.

Jimmy Butler is ready for the new season where he believes the Miami Heat are favorites to become NBA champions. A somewhat surprising message, as they are definitely not among the favorites in the new season.
Butler has turned 33 and is about to start his 14th season in the NBA, he still lacks the ring that everyone dreams of, therefore his message that Miami are favorites this year also seems a bit unrealistic.
Butler is a six time NBA All-star and still one of the highest paid in the league and he is definitely a top player as well.

Butler's leadership, scoring ability, and defensive skills are crucial for the team's success. He brought a strong work ethic, competitiveness, and clutch performances during the playoffs, which earned him the reputation of being one of the league's premier two-way players. He became the primary go-to scorer for the Heat and led the team in crucial moments.

Off the court, Butler's veteran presence and mentorship positively influenced the young players on the team, helping them develop and mature as professionals. He is seen as a vocal leader and a player who could galvanize the team, bringing out the best in his teammates.

He was fantastic in the play-offs last season, so there are high expectations for Butler if the Miami Heat are to have a better season this year. Since joining Miami in 2019, he has achieved 37 play-off wins, which is quite impressive.
