In Miami, the situation regarding Jimmy Butler remains tumultuous. After a suspension that lasted seven games, Butler's future with the Heat is uncertain as he seeks “joy” in playing basketball again. The Heat are preparing to face the Denver Nuggets tonight, and while there are murmurs of Butler's potential return, tensions persist concerning his commitment to the team. The locker room is reportedly divided, with some sources indicating that teammates may not want him back.
