[Saba Sports News] Jimmy Butler’s unique haircut at the 2023 media day garnered a wide range of reactions, but it appears that not everyone within the Miami Heat organization was amused.
According to Grind City Media’s Mike Wallace, a significant majority of the Heat organization felt “uncomfortable” with Butler’s media day antics, considering it to be contrary to the typical Miami Heat culture.
Wallace, who has covered both the Memphis Grizzlies and the LeBron James-Heat era for ESPN, drew a comparison to a past controversy involving LeBron James’ use of headbands when he joined the Heat, noting that Butler’s haircut was on a different level.
This isn’t the first time Butler has made a memorable statement with his media day haircut, potentially causing discomfort among some Heat executives.
