The Heat said Butler missed the team's flight on Wednesday for Thursday's matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks. Butler reportedly had plans to join the team Wednesday evening. However, the team decided instead to suspend him from the upcoming two-game road trip, which also includes a game against the Brooklyn Nets on Saturday.

Jimmy Butler will be suspended by the Miami Heat for the second time in three weeks, a person with knowledge of the decision said Wednesday, a move that adds to the possibility he has already played his final game for the franchise.

Miami Heat wing Jimmy Butler returned from a seven-game suspension last Friday, and has played in the last three games as he awaits a potential trade away from the team. Now, the 35-year-old is staring down his second suspension of the month after missing a team flight, according to ESPN's Shams Charania.
