The Dallas Mavericks have appeared to make a bold trade decision on the Miami Heat's Jimmy Butler following Luka Doncic's move to the Los Angeles Lakers.

The Heat and the Golden State Warriors have agreed on a deal that sends Butler to the Bay Area, a person with knowledge of the talks said Wednesday. The trade ends a Miami era for Butler that will be remembered first for two trips to the NBA Finals and then three suspensions toward the end of a hostile breakup.
