More on this storyline
Ira Winderman: The Heat say that Jimmy Butler (calf) is available tonight in Utah vs. Jazz. He has missed the past four games. -via Twitter @IraHeatBeat / December 30, 2023
Ira Winderman: Heat annonce that Kyle Lowry (concussion), Caleb Martin (ankle) and Josh Richardson (back) are out today in Utah. Butler (calf) still listed as questionable. Jaime Jaquez Jr. (illness) is available. Lowry changed from soreness due to being kneed in head by Bam in a previous game. -via Twitter @IraHeatBeat / December 30, 2023
Tim Reynolds: “Can you do something for me?” he said, his eyes just a red and teary mess at this point. “Tell the fans we really tried and I’m sorry. I really tried.” And then he and Jimmy Butler walked out, arms slung over each other’s shoulders, Goran Dragic pretty much inconsolable. -via Twitter @ByTimReynolds / December 30, 2023
