Butler is one of the most popular players in the NBA (and the best player on the Heat). 

Therefore, the youth camp will likely be a significant event in South Florida.  

The former Marquette star joined the franchise in the summer of 2019, so he is going into his fifth year with the Heat. 

This past year, they were the eighth seed in the Eastern Conference but made it all the way to the NBA Finals (before losing to the Denver Nuggets in five games).
