Heat players on the bench heard about the Jimmy Butler trade from a fan in the stands

Wednesday night’s Jimmy Butler trade from the Miami Heat to the Golden State Warriors came during Miami’s road game against the Philadelphia 76ers.

One fan shared the news about the Butler trade from the stands to players on the Heat bench during the game, with a video circulating on social media documenting the exchange.

These are the times we live in; a fan at a game can just check their phone and share news about a team with the team’s players while they’re on the bench.

Butler joining Golden State will be one of the marquee moves of this NBA trade deadline, and these Heat players really may have first heard about it from a fan in the stands.
