Jimmy Butler ready to “confront” John Calipari over bully comment

After the All-Star guard’s messy divorce from the Minnesota Timberwolves in which Butler basically slammed every part of the team, including former UK big man Karl-Anthony Towns, Butler says he will “confront” Wildcat head coach John Calipari after Calipari said Butler was a “bully” in the locker room.

As you may recall, the T-Wolves locker room morale was a disaster at the beginning of the season with Butler isolating his teammates and coaches. The situation got so bad that Butler demanded a trade and became a major disruption until it came as the forward was moved to Philadelphia.
