Butler, the disgruntled forward who has sought a trade from Miami, left the team's shootaround hours before its double-overtime win.

The Miami Heat are suspending star Jimmy Butler indefinitely. After multiple incidents, it remains to be seen if Butler will return to the team. NBA insider Shams Charania reported the news on social media.

"I think we have enough respect for each other that we texted each other once the deal went through just to wish each other the best on it," Spoelstra said. "And we also have that respect that you want each other to learn about the respective players without any kind of influence."
