NBA/Butler Has Invited Argentine Fans To Dinner To Make Up For It

Heat star Jimmy Butler was criticized for hosting the family for dinner at the Heat's home stadium after he was sidelined with an injury, frustrating the young fans who had come from Argentina. Butler said in a recent interview that he once longed to enter the NBA like this boy, and through this time together, his life has changed for the better.

Butler missed the Heat's home game against the Celtics because of back tightness before the game. After the game, it was reported that a brother and sister who came to the Heat from Argentina with their family were sad not to see Butler play, which caused media reports.

Butler took the two siblings and their families to visit the Heat home and lounge the next day, and even had dinner together, which was praised by the outside world. In a recent interview, Butler also said: "It's a tough job because you have to take care of your body. The other day I went to warm up and felt tightness in my back and missed the game. I know a lot of people want to see me play."

Butler pointed out that after learning the news of the little fan, he felt quite remorse, and spent the next two days with the family. "They love things related to sports, and I am his idol, so I am very, very lucky to be able to know their thoughts, because I have been like them, since I was a child, eager to stand on the NBA stage, and by spending time with them, It made a great difference in my life and I was really happy to meet them."
