This came after his recent tour of China to participate in Yao Ming’s charity basketball game. Jimmy is keeping himself occupied with things he loves throughout the offseason. In Sweden, basketball wasn’t off the menu as the Heat forward was putting the work in the lab before heading to his main destination.
The destination was Justin Timberlake’s concert. Although Jimmy Butler wasn’t dressed in black and white, he certainly put on a show. This included some of his signature dance moves. While Timberlake took over the stage, controlling the crowd to his tune, Butler was grooving to it from a few rows back with a drink in hand. The 10-time Grammy award winner gestured a time-out after spotting Jimmy in the crowd and the two again linked up following the show. The two shot some pictures together, displayed in a carousel on his Instagram post. Butler captioned the post, “a night was had in stockholm sweden. shouts to @justintimberlake for a helluva damn show”.

Jimmy Butler and Justin Timberlake’s shocking collab: Did you see this coming? React!
Jimmy and side quests landed him in a music video with Fall Out Boys earlier this year, followed by a courtside cameo alongside Camila Cabello. But what of his main quest? The NBA championship still eludes him as Butler is entering his 13th season in search of that and the fans want exactly that despite his Nets links.
Fans urge Jimmy Butler to bring the chip to Miami despite Nets rumor
“Jimmy I’m still glazing please bring us a chip I know you can my glorious Butler,” a fan wrote. This is the common plea among the Heat fans who are looking for their first NBA Championship since 2013. Butler was agonizingly close to making that a reality before the Nuggets demolished them in the 2023 NBA Finals after losing at the same stage in 2020 to the Lakers. Last season was a forgettable one for the franchise as Butler missed the playoffs as the Celtics dumped them out in round one. Incidentally, Timberlake is a Celtic through and through, which led to some fans questioning the collab.
What’s your perspective on:
Could Jimmy Butler’s rumored move to the Nets shake up the entire NBA? What do you think?
Have an interesting take?
Debate
“Jimmy no ring butler 🍀☘️☘️☘️”, another fan added, bringing up the heated rivalry between the franchises. The MCL injury kept Butler out of the series against the Celtics. In May, Butler retorted that if he was fit, the Cs would be at home. The Heat did exactly the same the previous year during their Eastern Conference Finals showdown. The 34-year-old also claimed that the Knicks would’ve surely been home if he played, showing his disdain for the NY side and his affinity to the Nets.
So it was understandable that a Nets fan wanted to see Butler in the black and white of the franchise amid the rumors. “Can’t wait to see you in that Brooklyn Nets jersey”, read a comment. Butler is reportedly open to joining the Nets in the free agency next summer. The 6-time All-Star’s intention of not signing an extension with the Heat is already out in the open and the next will possibly be his last chance to leave a lasting legacy in Miami.
I love you Jimmy. But it’s almost game time. We need you to bring us the championship this year,” a Heat fan urged in the comments of the post. It will be Butler’s 6th season in the franchise. While he has 2 All-Star appearances during that span, he failed to bring the big one to Miami. This will be a pivotal season for the Heat as the franchise might go into a rebuilt mode following this one. So a title will be the perfect way to end his tenure in Florida.
