Jimmy Butler banned from Hustler

Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler has been banned from the popular poker livestream 'Hustler Casino Live' due to his reportedly rude behavior during a June appearance. Co-owner Nick Vertucci described Butler's actions as 'prima donna' behavior, highlighting that Butler refused to participate in the game for an hour and a half until his friend Neymar arrived and expressed confusion over game rules. Tensions escalated when Butler reportedly argued with other players, leading Vertucci to approach him, only for Butler to react negatively and demand his personal space. Vertucci stated, 'I don’t want him back,' citing Butler's overall demeanor as being disrespectful. This incident has overshadowed what was otherwise an iconic poker stream featuring multiple celebrity players. Butler's side of the story has not been publicly shared, leaving the situation somewhat one-sided.
