The Miami Heat missed out on a golden opportunity tonight. Having a commanding 3-0 lead on the series, the Heat were in Miami for a closeout Game 4. However, Jimmy Butler and the Heat could not close out Jayson Tatum and co. Butler was 9/21 from the field tonight. While one can blame the close-out game jitters, there might be an entirely different reason. A reason that involves the Colombian sensation Shakira.

Shakira has been spotted a lot in Miami over the last month. First, it was at the Miami GP, where she was seen hanging out with Lewis Hamilton. That sparked dating rumors between her and the 7x World Champion. Recently she attended Game 3 between the Heat and the Celtics. That led Overtime to come up with a whole new theory altogether.
Media outlet suggests Shakira is dating Jimmy Butler
Jimmy Butler is a very private person who very meticulously decides what part of his life goes on social media or his YouTube channel. Despite him keeping things on the down low, we know about Jimmy’s long-time girlfriend, Kaitlin Nowak. He has a daughter with Kaitlin, Rylee. There have been no updates other than that on his personal life, so most of us assumed that Nowak and Butler were still going on strong.
However, Overtime just uploaded a video where they brought up a wild theory of how Butler’s dating Shakira. The reasoning behind the same? Shakira attended Game 3 in a suite, her and Butler followed each other on Instagram, and her son wore Butler’s jersey for his Halloween costume.
Basing a dating rumor on these three events is a big leap. We don’t have any proof as to whether these rumors are true or not, but let’s look at the facts.
Is Jimmy dating Shakira?
These are three events that may be unrelated and not enough to spark dating rumors on their own. After all, it might be possible that her son is a Jimmy Butler fan. They might have been in Miami for summer break, and the kid might have convinced Shakira to attend the Heat game.
At the same time, Butler has a daughter with Kaitlin, and there have been no indications of a breakup. Maybe just like Shakira and Lewis Hamilton are just friends, the same could be the case for Jimmy and Shakira now, leading them to follow each other on Instagram.
Till we get better proof from Butler, Shakira, or parties close to them, we can believe that Jimmy Butler is not dating Shakira.
