Jimmy Butler is an elite offensive talent, but you wouldn't know it after he got rejected by three Timberwolves players at home in a game the Heat really could've used in the midst of the Eastern Conference playoff race.

Now THAT is how you secure the W. Shoutout to all three Timberwolves, including D'Angelo Russell, for not fouling Butler in a situation where he could've easily drawn some contact.
On a night they could've gained a game on the Philadelphia 76ers, Miami instead lost in front of their home fans to a Minnesota team lacking Karl-Anthony Towns. Not great!
