Miami Heat superstar Jimmy Butler has been enjoying the NBA offseason, with the veteran forward being seen all over the place lately, especially when it comes to tennis courts.
Butler has been extremely active when it comes to watching professional tennis and was actually a ball boy at one point in time.
With Butler getting so much attention for being at these popular tennis tournaments, the Heat superstar has embraced the attention, as he threw up a sign that says “Jimmy’s Back!” while at the US Open, via Bleacher Report.

Butler isn’t the only NBA superstar who has been seen at other professional sports events recently, as LeBron James of the Los Angeles Lakers has been seen watching soccer superstar Lionel Messi playing for Inter Miami in the MLS on more than one occasion, as the United States embraces the international icon.
With the start of NBA training camp still a few weeks away, Butler seems to be making the best of his time off, especially after going through another incredible playoff run in which he led the Heat from the Play-In Tournament to the NBA Finals.
Butler continues to prove over and over again that he’s among the elite players in the league, even though he plays with more of an old-school approach to the game.
Along with attending tennis tournaments, Butler is also waiting to see how the Damian Lillard trade saga unfolds, with the superstar guard wanting to play alongside him and Bam Adebayo in Miami next season.
