Miami Heat star forward Jimmy Butler was ruled out of Sunday’s 110-106 loss to the visiting Boston Celtics because of personal reasons.
“Jimmy Butler has been granted a leave of absence as he deals with the death of a family member,” said a statement the Heat provided via Butler’s agent, Bernie Lee. “Jimmy and his family ask for privacy at this point in time as they navigate this loss. Updates will be given when appropriate.”
Butler missed team practices on Friday and Saturday, both with excused absences
