Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler reiterated to...Pat Riley...last week that he wants to be traded...

Butler told Riley that he will not sign a new deal in Miami and intends to only use his $52 million player option in the offseason for 2025-26 as a trade maneuver, sources said.

I understand that to mean that if Riley does not trade him, Jimmy will nuke Riley with the $52M option and then the "Heat" will lose him to free agency in 2026/7.
