Jimmy Butler withdraws from practice, suspended again by Miami Heat

Jimmy Butler, who currently plays for the Miami Heat, was suspended indefinitely again for withdrawing from training. Jimmy Butler was suspended by the team for the third time this month, and this suspension basically started when the second suspension ended.  

It is reported that Jimmy Butler left the court early during shooting practice to prepare for the game against the Orlando Magic. This suspension is indefinite, and the team said it will last at least 5 games. Jimmy Butler was originally expected to end his second suspension, but he unexpectedly ushered in a third suspension.  

Jimmy Butler was told during shootaround that he would not return to the starting lineup for the upcoming game as he left shortly after the shootaround.  

As of now, Jimmy Butler has missed 14 of the Miami Heat's last 19 games, including 9 of the last 12 games due to suspension. The first time was because Jimmy Butler was suspended for 7 games because his behavior was considered harmful to the team, and then he was suspended for 2 games.  

Jimmy Butler wants a trade, and the Miami Heat are working to meet his demands. But trading Jimmy Butler and his $48.8 million salary this season could be more complicated than in past seasons. It's been nearly two months.  

At the beginning of the season, Jimmy Butler said he was not frustrated that his contract extension had not been completed. But in recent weeks, Jimmy Butler's position seems to have changed. The team announced earlier this month that Jimmy Butler requested a trade, and due to league regulations, he could not make this request public.
