Jimmy Butler is rocking a new hairstyle, something he showed off on Miami Heat Media Day. He calls it his "emo" look, something that the 34-year-old All-Star said is a good representation of what he genuinely feels as of late.
“I’m emo”

"I'm very emotional right now. This is my emo state and I like this. This is me," Butler said. "This is how I'm feeling as of late."

Of course, Butler did the same in last year's Media Day when he appeared with dreadlocks. But his latest hairstyle caught the attention of most - including his teammate, Bam Adebayo.

"That is not real. ... That is (expletive) hilarious," Adebayo said via NBA.com.
Butler determined to bring down the Bucks
Butler admitted going through a wave of emotions because of the Damian Lillard trade drama. In the end, the seven-time All-Star ended up with the Milwaukee Bucks.
Although he said he is happy for Lillard's new home, it also motivates him to lead the Heat to win against the Bucks as they continue their pursuit of an NBA title.
"I am happy for Damian Lillard... I'm gonna go beat Dame, Giannis [Antetokounmpo] and [Milwaukee Bucks coach] Adrian Griffin on our way to a title," Butler said on NBA TV via CBS Sports.
While those comments are hardly surprising from someone as competitive as Butler, it remains to be seen if his new hairdo is something he will sport for the coming season. All that should be answered once the Miami Heat opens training camp.
