Months After Fans Doubted Jimmy Butler for Michael Jordan’s Son, Dwyane Wade Reveals a Common Trait Between the Ex-Bulls Stars

Butler, though, shifts gears and becomes into an unstoppable beast once the NBA playoffs begin. The NBA Finals were unexpectedly reached in 2023, when Jimmy Butler guided the 8th-seeded Miami Heat to victory. Butler's dominating performance in the opening round against Giannis Antetokounmpo and company led to the long-running rumour that he is the son of six-time champion Michael Jordan.

Dwyane Wade, a member of the Basketball Hall of Fame, appeared as a guest on Shannon Sharpe's Club Shay Shay podcast. The legendary Heat player noted Jimmy Butler's one similarity to His Airness: "He is always looking for something to piss him off."

The documentary "The Last Dance" contains extensive documentation of his drive to vent anger at his rivals during his six NBA Championship runs.
