One NBA writer proposed that the San Antonio Spurs acquire Jimmy Butler from the Miami Heat this offseason.
Andy Bailey of Bleacher Report proposed the following trade idea between the Spurs and Heat:
Butler is extension-eligible this offseason. He’ll make $48.8 million next season.
Butler, who turns 35 in September, has a player option worth $52.4 million for the 2025-26 season.
The Heat lost to the Boston Celtics in the first round of the 2024 playoffs in five games. Butler didn’t play because of a knee injury.
Meanwhile, the Spurs won only 22 games.
