2024-2025 Around the NBA Thread

[Mainstreet]

Butler rolled his ankle last night. No wonder Flex started in saying something will happen. Suns and injured players are like peanut butter and jelly.

He left the game due to his ankle but was ruled out and it was said he was ill. Seems strange to sort of change it up. He definitely tweaked his ankle. Perhaps he's just sick of being in Miami.

Heat's Butler hurts ankle then exits with illness

Jimmy Butler appeared to turn his left ankle and then left Miami's game against Oklahoma City in the first quarter with what the team later said was an illness.

FWIW, Flex has been talking about the Suns as Butler's preferred trade destination for a while.

Teams are bracing for the next domino to drop on the trade market from the Nets, more specifically either Cam Johnson or Dorian Finney-Smith.Brooklyn has an extremely strong market for both players developing, but they could continue to wait in order to create bidding wars.
