The Jimmy Butler saga is officially over. The disgruntled Miami Heat star has now landed with the Golden State Warriors in a massive blockbuster trade a day before the deadline.
Butler and the Heat had a clear falling out, though there were rumblings that he was going to stay put. Now, with a new team, the forward has reacted to landing in the Western Conference.
Butler took to social media to deliver audio for a song, and a simple caption of “welcome to the wild wild west.”
