Heat's Jimmy Butler: Sitting out preseason finale
Butler won't play in Friday's preseason game versus the Grizzlies, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.
Butler hasn't suffered any injury but will sit out Friday's preseason finale alongside most of Miami's regulars. The star forward should be good to go for the Heat's regular-season opener against Orlando on Oct. 23.

Heat's Jimmy Butler: Leading scorer Wednesday
Butler logged 24 points (8-11 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 6-8 FT), five rebounds, three assists and three steals over 21 minutes in Wednesday's 120-111 preseason win over the Hawks.
Despite the Heat playing the second game of a back-to-back, Butler and the rest of the starters each played 20-plus minutes Wednesday. It didn't seem to bother him, as he led both teams in scoring in an efficient manner. Butler was unable to play in the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs after suffering a right MCL sprain during the Heat's Play-In Game loss to the 76ers last year, but he was cleared to participate in training camp without restrictions. Butler just turned 35, and his health during the 2024-25 campaign will be worth monitoring as he's missed at least 20 regular-season games in three of the last four years.

Heat's Jimmy Butler: Full go for camp
Butler (knee) will be a full go for training camp this week, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.
Butler suffered a right MCL sprain during Miami's Play-In Game loss to the 76ers, but he had a healthy offseason for the most part. Butler's durability has been a major red flag for fantasy managers, as he's missed 20 or more regular-season games three times in the past four seasons. He's been challenged by Pat Riley to get back on track, however, and Butler made it clear that he's up to the task.
