Jimmy Butler and the Heat are moving on to the second round of the NBA playoffs after beating the Bucks 4–1 in their first-round series, which ended in dramatic fashion Wednesday after Butler sent the game to overtime with one of the greatest buzzer-beaters of all time.
Butler is back to being a force in the playoffs for the Heat. He had 56 points in Miami’s Game 4 win and 42 in Game 5, including that buzzer-beater that should be in NBA highlight videos for the rest of time.
Moments after torching Milwaukee, Butler gave a great answer about how he wants to spend some of his time before Miami’s series with the Knicks begins:
Jimmy Butler says he’s going use his off time to get ice cream and go to the park with his daughter. Love it 😭 @thesportsontap pic.twitter.com/Hqj446Ri91
