NBA Twitter Reacts to Jimmy Butler’s New Hair
Butler will be entering his 13th season in the NBA in 2022 and his fourth with the Miami Heat.
Last year, he averaged 27.4 points, 7.4 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 2.1 steals in the postseason and led Miami to the Eastern Conference Finals.
But Butler isn’t catching fire on the internet because of his basketball skills.
While he may not keep his new hairstyle for the upcoming 2022-2023 season, the Miami forward is quite unpredictable.
Butler’s new hair broke the internet and fans couldn’t help but crack jokes on Twitter.
