Jimmy Butler returned to the court for the Miami Heat on Friday night after serving a seven-game suspension due to "multiple instances of conduct detrimental to the team," and while the suspension may be over—the drama surrounding him is far from it.

With Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler possibly making a return Friday night when the team hosts the Denver Nuggets, a recent report from ESPN's Ramona Shelburne indicates that the drama will amplify like never before.

Bernie Lee, Butler’s agent, posted a press release on X akin to Michael Jordan’s famous “I’m back” statement, which ended his first NBA retirement in 1995. Leaning into the Jordan theme — or troll — Butler posted photos on his Instagram story wearing the Jordan No. 45 Bulls uniform.
