Jimmy Butler

Everybody knows Jimmy Butler can win a game with a bucket, but how about a game-saving block for good measure? The six-time All-Star came up huge on the defensive end in the closing seconds against the Phoenix Suns following a pair of Bam Adebayo free throws that gave the Miami Heat a one-point lead heading into the game’s final possession. When Devin Booker embarked on a determined drive to try to win his squad the game, Butler tracked him to the foul line and landed a clutch block on Booker’s pull-up attempt that preserved Miami’s lead. Butler posted 16 points, 13 rebounds and seven assists in the thrilling 113-112 win on November 14, 2022. Another excellent regular season gave way to a legendary playoff run, as Butler became the first player in franchise history to post consecutive 40-point postseason games, helping the Heat become the first eight-seed to knock off a one-seed since 2012.
