Jimmy Butler: Heat not overlooked, enjoy being around each other

The Miami Heat have two representatives in Cleveland for the 2022 NBA All-Star Weekend: Jimmy Butler, the franchise player, and Erik Spoelstra, the franchise head coach.

If Miami should only have two reps for their team in Ohio, then the rightful two people are there.

Though he’s missed time, Butler has been the Heat’s best player. Spoelstra, meanwhile, has done a masterful job keeping his team above sea level and prospering despite all the line-up inconsistencies they’ve faced this season.

The Heat are 38-21, number one in the Eastern Conference when factoring in its tiebreaker against the Chicago Bulls, who have the same record.
