It’s also worth noting executives who’ve checked in on Butler got the impression that Miami wants to figure out their star’s future after the season,

As the Miami Heat lost to the Boston Celtics Monday night, they look to break their current two-game losing streak Wednesday as they face the Los Angeles Lakers. However, the Heat missed star Jimmy Butler in the defeat as he gets the latest injury update provided by the team itself for the upcoming outing.

It appears that the Lakers will have their leading duo of Anthony Davis and LeBron James available against the Heat. The Lakers ruled out Jaxson Hayes (right ankle sprain), Bronny James Jr. (left heel contusion), Jarred Vanderbilt (right foot surgery recovery) and Christian Wood (left knee surgery recovery) for Wednesday’s game in Miami.
