Miami Heat swingman Jimmy Butler is pretty much unstoppable when he gets it going on offense – regardless if he has two shoes on or not.
With under two minutes left in the second quarter of the Heat versus Phoenix Suns clash on Thursday, the 30-year-old wing player lost his right shoe after bumping into Ricky Rubio while making a move in the paint.
The four-time All-Star, however, kept his composure and displayed impeccable footwork as he managed to keep his pivot foot down and connect on a tough lay-in. Butler even drew contact from Aaron Baynes for a marvelous and-one play.

Butler is tallying 15.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, 6.5 assists, and 3.8 steals in four games since joining the Heat after the birth of his daughter.
He also scored 30 of Miami’s 64 first half points – making him the second player in Heat history to record 30 or more in a half since LeBron James.
