The Miami Heat has not only had a good start to the 2021-2022 NBA season, but also one of its key players, such as Jimmy Butler who was named Player of the Week in the Eastern Conference.
The 32-year-old guard had great offensive merits, to have this distinction at the start of the harvest.
In this period Butler averaged 28 points, with a 58.6% effectiveness in the field goals. He also had eight rebounds, 5.3 assists and 3.3 rebounds.
Butler helped the Miami Heat in all four wins
One of the key points for one of the key pieces in coach Erik Spoelstra’s offense to win the accolade was that it helped his team have a perfect four-win, zero-loss week.
In addition, that his team is in the fourth position of the Eastern Conference, with a mark of 5 lauros and just one setback.

That Miami Heat achievement is due in large part to the work that Butler has had on the court, averaging at least 25 points, five assists and two steals.
Jimmy has also excelled defensively
But it has not only been on offense that Butler has had a good qualification, it has also done so on defense, where he has stopped his rivals, taking them to 37.5 percent of shots from the field, 8.2 percent worse than the shooting percentage of those players.
If he stays healthy throughout the season, it is predicted that it will not be the only individual prize that Butler has during the harvest.
This Tuesday the Miami Heat will return to the ring when they face the Dallas Mavericks as a visitor at the American Airlines Arena.
The Miami Heat tries this season to surpass what they achieved last season, where they qualified in eighth place, in the Eastern Conference.
