NBA All Star Was Asked To Pay $15 Million If He Wanted To Taste His Teammate’s Coffee: “Jimmy Is Such a D**k”

Jimmy Butler is an NBA veteran and one of the hardest workers on the court. He has been in the league for 10 years now and was drafted by the Chicago Bulls as their 30th pick overall. Butler has played for four franchises in his career in the NBA, the Chicago Bulls, Minnesota Timberwolves, Philadelphia 76ers, and Miami Heat.

He joined the Miami Heat in 2020 and is playing his 3rd season there. His most successful stint was with the Minnesota Timberwolves as he averaged over 22 points per game in his two seasons with them. In Miami, he has been their main man and even led the team to the 2020 NBA finals. 

Butler has shown repeatedly why the fans rate him so highly. He also won the MIP (Most Improved Player) in the 2014-15 season. The 6’7” star plays efficiently as a shooting guard or shooting forward.

Apart from playing basketball, Jimmy might just be the NBA’s biggest coffee aficionado. Jimmy also has his own brand of coffee, named Bigface coffee.

Bam Adebayo unimpressed by Jimmy Butler’s “offer”

Bam Adebayo was recently on The Old Man & The Three. JJ Redick and Tommy Alter had a conversation with Bam about his team, Miami Heat, and teammate Jimmy Butler.

JJ Redick asked Adebayo if he was also a coffee lover like his teammate Butler. The Miami Heat center refused that he was not a guy who enjoyed coffee that much. Redick then asked if he ever had the chance to try out Jimmy’s coffee. Bam revealed that he never had the chance rather, his Heat teammate offered him an unreasonable offer which was kind of laughable from Bam’s perspective.

Bam Adebayo said, “I’ve never caught Jimmy’s coffee. Jimmy told me I could invest in it in the company if I put uh, what do you tell me my 15 mil.” The three laughed hard at the offer given by Jimmy to Bam.

JJ Rednick then said, “Jimmy is such a d**k.” To which Bam agreed and, while laughing, said, “There you go.”

Butler launched Bigface coffee brand in a partnership with e-commerce company Shopify in 2021. In the agreement, Butler joined the company’s creator program and will not have to split the revenue with Shopify.

Jimmy and Bam have been teammates for 3 years now. They are the top seed team in the Eastern Conference. They will be eying the postseason with great interest and ambition. Heat would be hoping to reach the NBA finals once again and get their hands on the trophy this time.
