The Miami Heat’s chances of trading Jimmy Butler appear to be dwindling, with several teams reportedly losing interest due to his unwillingness to commit past the current season. Butler has told the Golden State Warriors that he’s not interested in signing an extension with them, and his no-trade clause means any trade would require him to accept a trade involving Bradley Beal, who has two years and $110 million left on his contract. The Heat is still looking for a quality player to help the team this season but wants to avoid taking back long-term salary that would clog its cap in 2026. With Butler serving a third team-issued suspension of the month, he’ll remain away from the team until at least Thursday’s trade deadline.
