On May 31, Beijing time, according to ESPN, Heat assistant coach Caron Butler and the team have reached a four-year contract extension, and he will continue to stay on Spoelstra's coaching staff. And what about Jimmy Butler? At the moment, Jimmy's contract extension talks with the Heat are not progressing, and he wants a contract with a maximum salary, whether from the Heat or another team.

Let's talk about Caron Butler, who should be no stranger to old fans. Caron Butler was born on March 13, 1980, is 2.01 meters tall and has an arm span of 2.11 meters. Caron was the No. 10 pick in the first round in 2002, the same class as Yao Ming. In 14 seasons of his career, he was selected as a two-time All-Star and won the NBA championship with the Mavericks in 2011.

Caron Butler has played for nine NBA teams: Heat, Lakers, Wizards, Mavericks, Clippers, Bucks, Thunder, Pistons, and Kings. He played 881 regular season games in his career, scoring 14.1 points, 5 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.3 steals while shooting 43.4% from the field, 34.8% from three-point range and 84.7% from the free throw line.

In the summer of 2016, Caron Butler retired from the NBA and announced his retirement in February 2018. For his entire NBA career, his salary is $84.68 million, and if he puts it now, Caron Butler can make $20 million a year. In November 2020, he became an assistant coach for the Heat. He also played for the Heat for the first two seasons of his career.

Now on to another Butler! Jimmy Butler was born on September 14, 1989 and is about to turn 35. Butler will be paid $48.8 million a year next season and a $52.4 million player option for the 2025-26 season. It stands to reason that there are still two seasons left before his contract expires, so why is Butler in a hurry to renew it now?

After all, at this age, he doesn't know what his state will be in two years, so it's better to settle down now. Butler has two options this summer: 1. Directly sign a one-year, 58.6 million early renewal contract; 2. Give up the player option and sign a 2-year, 113 million early renewal contract. The sect leader calculated that he would get an extra $2 million if he chose the second one.

Previously, Riley has publicly stated that the Heat have no plans to renew Butler's contract this summer. According to 76ers reporter Keith Pompey, if the 76ers can't sign George in free agency, they will offer Butler a max contract. At present, Butler is still a Heat player, and the 76ers can only poach people through trade.

Haslem, the Heat's vice president of basketball development, said: "The 76ers are not as likely to get Butler as they are to get Bronny. If you want to get out of the Heat, if you want to get out of Florida, you have to get past me first. I'm standing on the Florida border line and see how you go? "Haslem is ruthless, there is still a set!

NBA Register Shams said: "Butler wants to stay with the Heat for the long term, and the key is whether the Heat can pay the salary he wants. "$113 million in 2 years, that's not a small amount of money. In the regular season this season, Butler played 60 games, averaging 20.8 points, 5.3 rebounds, 5 assists and 1.3 steals per game, shooting 49.9%, 41.4% and 85.8% from three.

In this year's playoffs, Butler didn't play a single game due to injury, which is one of the reasons why Riley is reluctant to renew his contract early. Final question: Do you think Jimmy Butler will leave the Heat?
