The former Los Angeles Lakers forward and future Hall of Famer believes Jimmy Butler would be an ideal addtion ahead of the trade deadline.

The Miami Heat are trying to get rid of Jimmy Butler. The situation between the two has clearly become untenable, especially after the organization suspended him for seven games due to conduct detrimental to the team.

As the NBA trade deadline draws nearer, here are the latest rumors on star players Jimmy Butler, Cameron Johnson and Zach LaVine.

The Brooklyn Nets, who are in the midst of a rebuilding process, made trades in December with the Golden State Warriors and the Los Angeles Lakers -- two teams led by future Hall of Famers hoping to make one last run at the NBA Finals.

Even though there's a need for depth, people around the league think that the Lakers may not go all in at the deadline.
