Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler hopped on TNT's “Inside the NBA” on Tuesday night, only to be reminded of an old clip of him dating back to his days with the Chicago Bulls. The video showed Butler singing and dancing happily to Taylor Swift's single “22” in the locker room.
It's pretty hilarious, and Jimmy's reaction is priceless:

It's known that Butler is a big fan of T-Swift and country music, with his locker room antics becoming infamous over the years. Butler's former Chicago Bulls teammate in Dwyane Wade had to give out a 9 rating for the old video of Butler, similar to what he did to Orlando Magic forward Aaron Gordon in his All-Star Slam Dunk Contest bid back in 2020.
Several years later, Butler can only hope to have simpler days as his Heat squad continues to struggle this season after their Cinderella run to the NBA Finals in the bubble. Miami was forced to have a slow start to the 2020-21 campaign after the five-time All-Star missed out on a string of games due to COVID-19, with several other injuries also hurting the roster.
Even after getting Butler back on board as of late, the Heat are still struggling to build momentum, and they recently lost to a Los Angeles Clippers team playing without Kawhi Leonard and Paul George. On the bright side, there are still many games left for the Heat to turn things around and catch up in the standings, but they definitely have to figure things out soon.
The 31-year-old star will certainly be leaned upon by his team as they work their way up and vie for a playoff berth despite their slow start to this season. Hopefully, Jimmy Butler and his team will get to feel the good vibes again like he did in this old video.
