Video: Jimmy Butler Says He Doesn’t Like Dillon Brooks Following On-court Exchange

Jimmy Butler and Dillon Brooks had a heated exchange on the court, and now Butler is saying he doesn’t like Brooks after the exchange. Talk about some NBA beef!

But hey, tensions run high in sports sometimes, so it’s not too surprising. It’ll be interesting to see how this plays out in the future and if they can bury the hatchet. Stay tuned for more juicy updates on this basketball feud.

Pouring in 27 points, five rebounds and six assists, Butler also made three clutch free throws with 59 seconds remaining after being fouled by Rockets forward Dillon Brooks. The free throws put the Warriors up 107-104 and they never surrendered the lead again.

This game-deciding foul also gave Butler and the Warriors the last laugh in what was a game-long battle with Brooks.

Golden State has a history with Brooks, having faced him in the 2022 Western Conference Semifinals when he was a member of the Memphis Grizzlies. The one-time All-Defensive forward injured Gary Payton II in that series, leading to some back-and-forth media discourse between Steve Kerr and former Grizzlies head coach Taylor Jenkins.

While Butler was not a member of the Warriors in 2022, he made it clear on Monday night how he feels about Brooks.

“I don’t like Dillon Brooks,” Butler said, via ESPN’s Ohm Youngmisuk.

In the NBA, emotions run high in the heat of games and this isn’t the first time NBA players are getting into heated exchange on the court. Butler says he doesn’t like Dillon so will this beef continue off the court? Only time will tell!
