Justise Winslow Has Puzzling Comment on Heat Ruling Out Jimmy Butler for Personal Reasons

While the NBA season kicked off on Tuesday night with two games, the real fun begins on Wednesday with 11 games on the slate.

If you're a Miami Heat fan, you were bummed out to find that new star Jimmy Butler was ruled out for the season debut against the Memphis Grizzlies for personal reasons.

While head coach Erik Spoelstra stresses that "everything's fine" with Butler, Heat forward Justise Winslow had some intriguing comments about his absence, saying it's "part of the business."

Huh? What's that supposed to mean?

We won't find anything out about Butler's absence until he returns, which is expected to be soon.

This isn't the only drama that the Heat have been dealing with. Guard Dion Waiters has been suspended for one game for conduct detrimental to the team, stemming from an incident on the bench during Miami's preseason finale.

The biggest winner of Butler and Waiters being out for the season opener is Winslow himself, who will see an uptick in minutes in the backcourt alongside rookie Tyler Herro.

Either way, Miami will be hard-pressed to fill the void left by Jimmy Butler on opening night.
