In a blockbuster move that shook the NBA landscape, Jimmy Butler was traded from the Miami Heat to the Golden State Warriors. The deal also involved multiple other teams, including the Detroit Pistons and the Utah Jazz.
Another seismic shift occurred in the NBA on Wednesday night as news broke that Miami Heat disgruntled star Jimmy Butler was traded to the Golden State Warriors . Butler was away from the team as he was suspended indefinitely, but his now-former Heat teammates were in the middle of a game against the Philadelphia 76ers when the trade broke. Luckily for the Heat players, a fan sitting behind their bench filled them in on the deal, including the details of the trade.
'You got Kyle Anderson, Dennis Schroder and Andrew Wiggins,' the fan said as Kevin Love, Tyler Herro and Jaime Jaquez Jr. paid attention from their bench. February 6, 2025 The fan was sure to let Love know the Heat also got a protected first-round pick as he also let Miami's bench know he thought they 'robbed' the Warriors. Details remained fluid after the trade first broke with multiple teams involved. In full, Butler headed to Golden State while Wiggins, Anderson and the protected first-round pick went to Miami. The Detroit Pistons were involved and received Lindy Waters III from Golden State and Josh Richardson from Miami. Schroder was re-routed to the Utah Jazz, who then sent P.J.
