The Miami Heat announced in a statement on social media Friday that they are suspending star forward Jimmy Butler for seven games. They also stated that they will be listening to trade offers for Butler after the 35-year-old had indicated he longer wants to be a part of the team.

Butler is gone, banished by the Heat for seven games over what they called conduct detrimental to the team — and he's probably not going to play for Miami again. His suspension starts when the Heat play the Utah Jazz, and the team says it will agree to his wishes and try to facilitate a trade.

The tipping point apparently came in the wake of Wednesday’s victory over the New Orleans Pelicans when it came to Jimmy Butler’s souring relationship with the Miami Heat turning toxic.
