Miami Heat superstar forward Jimmy Butler sounds very ready to play for another team.
Butler had some strong words after Miami’s home loss to the Indiana Pacers on Thursday night about getting his joy back for playing basketball.
Butler alluded that the best chances of regaining his joy for the game most likely involve playing for another NBA franchise.
“I want to get my joy back,” Butler said in his postgame press conference.
“I’m happy here off the court, but I want to be back to somewhere dominant. I want to hoop, and I want to help this team win right now. I’m not doing that.”
When asked if it’s possible for him to get his joy back in Miami on the court, he squarely responded, “Probably not.”
“Probably not.”
