What shoes does Jimmy Butler wear in 2023 NBA Finals? Exploring the Heat star’s signature sneaker which are slightly more unorthodox than many other NBA star’s.
The Miami Heat have had one of the most improbable NBA Finals runs in recent memory. Erik Spoelstra’s team finished the regular season as the No.7 seed in the Eastern Conference, meaning they had to come through the play-in tournament to reach the playoffs proper.
After beating the Bulls in the play-in, they overcame the odds to beat the Bucks, Knicks and Celtics to set up an NBA Finals with the Denver Nuggets.
Central to the Heat’s success this season is Jimmy Butler, who at times has put the team on his back and carried them over the line. If the Heat are to somehow defeat Denver in the best-of-seven series, Butler will be a shoo-in for Finals MVP.
