NBA pundit Mark Spears told ESPN’s NBA Today that Jimmy Butler wants out of the Miami Heat, but the biggest problem with this trade is the 35-year-old forward’s demands that have prevented interested teams from making a move.

Butler has insisted to team president Pat Riley and Heat owner Mickey Arison that he wants to be traded out of Miami before the Feb. 6 deadline, and if he doesn’t, he will exercise his $52.4 million player option for next season to leave Miami and not sign with the Heat. kindee1688
