The Minnesota Timberwolves are doing pretty well right now. They are 29-17 in the season, which is enough to give them the fourth seed in the West.
Jimmy Butler is averaging 21.6 points, 5.4 rebounds and 5.1 assists for the Timberwolves this season. He is obviously having a good time.
But it seems that Butler is also having a good time off the basketball court. He's been seen sliding into the Instagram comments of Olympian star Lolo Jones.
It all started when Butler posted a photo of himself on his IG. Jones dropped a little flirt in the comments, to which Butler replied:
“Messing with me things come and go quickly.. pun intended haaa”
Haley O'shaughnessy of The Ringer screenshotted the short conversation and posted it on Twitter.

If you are not familiar with Jones, she is a hurdler and bobsledder who has been participating in the Olympics. She is also saying that she is a virgin at 35-years-old.
This whole IG thing may not lead to anything serious, but it's nice to know that Butler and Jones, pursuing different careers, have something to share even just in the digital world.
But this doesn't change the fact that Butler seems to be winning on and off the court.
He was winning when he was with the Chicago Bulls. Now that he is on the Timberwolves because of a trade, it looks like his winning character is still there.
