Jimmy Butler wore the Chicago Bulls uniform for six seasons. A lot has happened since his move away from the Windy City. For one, he has established himself as one of the best playoff performers in the league, taking the Miami Heat to two NBA Finals. Unfortunately, his time in South Beach seems to be coming to an end and it is not a happy one.

For the third time in recent weeks, Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler has been suspended by the team, with the NBA trade deadline just days away.

According to NBA insider Kevin O’Connor of Yahoo Sports, Stephen Curry and Steve Kerr are concerned about Jimmy Butler‘s fit in the Golden State Warriors locker room.  Butler has requested a trade from the Miami Heat.

As the NBA trade deadline looms, Kevin O'Connor and Tom Haberstroh team up to talk the hottest trade rumors, the latest on Jimmy Butler, which teams should start tanking and more.

The NBA trade deadline draws closer by the day, and as always, the transaction cycle remains headlined by the same small group of players. On Monday, the Miami Heat suspended Jimmy Butler indefinitely after he walked out of a shootaround upon receiving the news that he would be benched.

As the trade deadline gets closer, other teams trying to get involved in the Jimmy Butler trade, and the Chicago Bulls are one of them.

Fox is the new name on the market after sending signals he doesn't want to commit long term to the Kings. Meanwhile, Butler remains suspended as the Heat decide his future.
