Jimmy Butler’s beautiful gesture for a young fan who couldn’t see him play

Last night an Argentine child, before the game between Miami Heat and Boston Celtics, had displayed a sign from the stands. It read: “Dear Jimmy, We flew 4,405 miles (over 7,000 km, ed.) to see you play: can we have a photo or a Big Face Coffee?”. The child’s video soon went viral because, as he displayed the message, an attendant at the arena informed him that Jimmy Butler would not actually be playing that game., with the little fan nearly bursting into tears.

Fortunately, the video also reached Butler, who was present at the arena, yes, but in plain clothes. After the game Jimmy met the fan and his family, walking with them through the corridors of the arena and autographing their T-shirts and a ball. Definitely a day that will never forget all their lives.

THIS IS AWESOME! Jimmy Butler came to meet the young fans today that flew in from Argentina to see him play last night! Butler was scratched from the lineup roughly an hour before tipoff. A FOREVER MEMORY!👏👏👏
