Since joining the Golden State Warriors, Jimmy Butler has settled in with ease. The former Miami Heat superstar has taken on the ‘Robin’ role alongside Stephen Curry. And while he seems to be on great terms with all his teammates, his friendship with one of them truly stands out.
Buddy Hield is a sharpshooter, but ultimately a role player on the Dubs. Since his arrival, Butler has often been seen taunting Hield and making fun of him. In his defense, Buddy has given back as good as he got. But a recent viral clip featuring a fan in a Hield jersey shows that Jimmy will never miss an opportunity to troll Hield.

The Warriors play in Milwaukee on Thursday night. And during warmups, Butler spotted a fan wearing a Golden State jersey under his Bucks hoodie. Once the 6-time NBA All-Star realized it was actually a Hield jersey, he looked shocked and walked over.

While seemingly continuing to poke fun, though, Butler ensured the fan got a picture with Buddy. Hield also chose to enlist the young fan in trolling Jimmy right back. Overall, it’s safe to say that the vibes were immaculate.

Despite all the good energy, the Warriors lost 120-110 against the Bucks. Butler scored 23 points, and Hield had eight off the bench, but it wasn’t enough. That fan would be better off just keeping his Milwaukee hoodie on today.
