Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Jimmy Butler has been starstruck to see Marcelo in courtroom as they shook hands together.
Jimmy Butler has been a hot commodity in the NBA since his stint with the Philadelphia 76ers. There could have been a super team in Philly with Embiid and Butler on the roster, but the Sixers decided to trade Butler in 2019 to the Miami Heat. Jimmy Buckets had signed a 4-year $140,000,000 deal at the time. However, after his trip to Paris, he was ready to give it all up to play soccer alongside Neymar Jr. and Kylian Mbappe.Â
Butler was going through a turbulent time in his career in that period. After getting traded by the Bulls to the Timberwolves in 2017, he spent just a year with the Karl-Anthony Towns and Andrew Wiggins-led Minnesota team. Next year, he found himself in Philly alongside Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons. That didn’t pan out well either. Butler wanted to start afresh at the time and therefore, jokingly said he would play for Paris Saint-Germain if they bought him out.
