Jimmy Butler has officially joined the Golden State Warriors, marking a significant shift in his NBA career after a tumultuous departure from the Miami Heat. Butler, who has been traded to the Warriors, expressed his happiness about playing basketball again and his ambition to win an NBA championship with his new team. He will wear jersey number 10, a choice made in homage to his friend, Brazilian soccer star Neymar, whom Butler praised for his fatherhood. Butler's debut with the Warriors is set for Saturday against the Chicago Bulls, a fitting start as it was the team that drafted him into the NBA. The Warriors are hopeful that Butler's addition will bolster their lineup, particularly in the absence of Jonathan Kuminga, who is sidelined with a sprained ankle. Butler's arrival comes with a two-year, $121 million contract extension, aligning his tenure with that of Stephen Curry and Draymond Green, key figures in the Warriors' championship aspirations. Butler's time with the Heat ended after he faced multiple suspensions and expressed a loss of joy in playing there.
