play

Miami Heat All-Star Jimmy Butler has a knack for messing with NBA media personnel. In recent years, Butler has shown up to media days with an outlandish outfit or hairstyle in order to look as ridiculous as possible for the starting lineup graphics when his team’s games are televised.

In 2023, he appeared to the media in full emo gear.

And here he is in 2022 with lush dreadlocks.

There has been so much speculation about Butler’s appearance this year that some people have even placed bets on Butler’s hairstyle for Media Day 2024.

But after all the speculations, Butler finally decided to go with his normal look.

Does that mean he’s more committed to the cause than usual for the coming season? Has he left such harassment behind him?
