Butler had his season cut short due to injury and he was unable to play in the 2024 NBA playoffs.

This was just one year after he led the Heat to the NBA Finals for the second time in four seasons.

That said, seeing Butler being able to travel and move around the world is a good sign that he is going to come back fully healthy next year.
