Butler spotted alone

A fan spotted Jimmy Butler walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of July 27, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Jimmy back on the market?

A rep for Jimmy Butler was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the basketball player was splitting hit the internet Tuesday (July 28), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Jimmy’s phone number?”
