The Miami Heat are reportedly finalizing a deal Wednesday night that would send six-time All-Star forward Jimmy Butler to the Golden State Warriors.

Golden State currently sits 11th in the Western Conference. They're 3.5 games behind the Minnesota Timberwolves who occupy the sixth seed, which guarantees progression into the playoffs. With Butler now on board, Kerr's team will likely feel confident in their ability to challenge for a playoff spot and to make noise during the postseason.

Jimmy Butler got what he wanted. He's being traded out of Miami and got a new contract in the process. 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.
