The Miami Heat and Jimmy Butler have made a rather awkward start to the NBA season. They will be looking to beat the Raptors back-to-back.

The Miami Heat finally won their first game of the season when they faced off against the Toronto Raptors. And Jimmy Butler is the one towing the team across the line.

His 24-5-4 was enough to beat the Raptors. In this back-to-back, the Miami Heat will look to add to their momentum and make it two wins in a row. They will need Butler to lead the line.

But will he play the second game against the Raptors?

Butler has been solid since the start of the season and Miami are finding their feet. Max Strus and Tyler Herro have also contributed well.

Butler will be in good spirits this season. He just got his signature shoes on Li Ning and he joins a select group of people that have signature sneakers.

More colorways and more wins we hope.
