One of the most anticipated matchups of the year turned into a statement game as Jimmy Butler made his return to Kaseya Center in a Golden State Warriors jersey—only to be humbled by his former team.

The Miami Heat came out with playoff-level intensity, delivering a defensive masterclass to smother the Warriors 112-86. Butler finished with just 11 points and 6 rebounds, unable to make an impact against his former teammate Bam Adebayo, who dominated with 27 points and 8 boards.

Butler’s departure from Miami had been far from smooth, and it was clear the Heat had this game circled on the calendar. The defensive pressure, physicality, and crowd energy left no doubt—Miami wanted this one badly, and they got it.

Grizzlies Drama in 140-103 Rout of Utah

The Memphis Grizzlies blew out the Utah Jazz 140-103 in a lopsided affair, but the most talked-about moment wasn’t a dunk or three-pointer—it was an intense altercation between teammates Desmond Bane and Santi Aldama.

The two Grizzlies exchanged heated words in the second half and had to be separated by teammates. Tensions are clearly rising as the playoff race intensifies, and this incident might just be a glimpse of Memphis' internal pressure.
