Butler, the disgruntled forward who has sought a trade from Miami, left the team's shootaround hours before its double-overtime win.

Butler was informed at morning shootaround that he would come off the bench behind Haywood Highsmith against Orlando, which prompted Butler to walk out of the shootaround. That gave Miami the pretext, and it suspended Butler “indefinitely,” a story broken by Shams Charania of The Athletic and since confirmed by the team.

Jimmy Butler gets his wish to leave Miami while the Heat add a handful of veteran players, including Andrew Wiggins.
