Jimmy Butler has a good thing going with the Miami Heat.
Over the last few years, the team has emerged as one of the best in the East and stood close to making the NBA Finals last season.
With Butler in the lead, the Heat are becoming one of the most consistent teams in the entire league and few people are betting heavily against them.
As for Butler, he has become very comfortable in Miami and it feels like he’s really enjoying being part of the team.

Perhaps because of how much he’s loving his life in South Beach, Butler decided to change up his style and look.
He got a new, stark, hairstyle: dreadlocks.
He showed off the look on Twitter and was met with a mix of praise and, of course, some gentle teasing.
But the look of his hair doesn’t matter in the end – it’s Butler’s skills that people should really take note of.
The New Do
Butler surprised the entire NBA world when he showed off his new look.
It was surprising not only because the style was so drastically different from what we have seen from him in the past but also because he isn’t the type to really change things up too often.

With a new look, will Butler reach new heights in the league?
Maybe, maybe not, but even if he stays exactly the same on the court, the Heat will be in great shape because Butler is becoming one of the best leaders in the league.
Despite that, people online were definitely poking fun at Butler and his cut.

They weren’t just comparing him to a character from “8 Mile”, they were also poking fun at his contract.
