Golden State Warriors forward Jimmy Butler III is set to face the Miami Heat for the first time since his recent trade, which followed a tumultuous period that included multiple suspensions. The deadline deal sent him to the Warriors while the Heat received several assets in return. Butler has been downplaying the significance of this return, but given the public nature of his feud with the franchise, how he is received in Miami will be closely watched.
With Tuesday's contest marking the Warriors' only game during a five-day span, Butler will be in Miami for a while.
But considering the feud between the Heat and Butler played out publicly before the trade, there will be intrigue on how the Heat welcomes Butler back to Miami.
