A top NBA player, Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler is recognized for his competitiveness and dedication. Butler enjoys himself off the court too. Despite his worldwide fаme, he tries to live normally.

Butler described his daily existence in a Sports Illustrated interview. The Miami Heat forward offered a new perspective on his goals beyond winning.

“I just like to do stuff other people get to do,” Butler added. “Not everyone can be a 6’8″ NBA player. All could be ball boys if they wished. Like everyone else, I am. Attending parent-teacher conferences with my kids is my goal. Don’t believe the NBA title. This is the least of me.”
