Fox Sports 1's Colin Cowherd offers a Jimmy Butler-led Warriors trade package for Bucks All-Star Giannis Antetokounmpo

Golden State Warriors sharpshooter Buddy Hield joked about having disdain for teammate Jimmy Butler following the Dubs' 119-109 season-opening win over the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday night.

When speaking to the media during his postgame news conference, Warriors head coach Steve Kerr praised Butler's performance against JJ Redick team. Kerr likened Butler's calming presence to that of former Warriors forward Andre Iguodala, who helped secure four championships during his tenure in the Bay Area.

Butler is an outstanding free-throw shooter, a career 84.4% from the stripe. Thing is, Curry is the best shooter who ever lived and if you let him stand 15 feet from the basket unguarded, he doesn’t really miss. Consider this a reminder never to make a bet you’re not willing to pay off.

Jimmy Butler and his former team, the Miami Heat, reportedly reached a settlement on the $6 million in fines and withheld salary he piled up while awaiting a trade last season.

Jimmy Butler, with a focus on getting to the line and making free throws, and Jonathan Kuminga, with an offseason contract standoff behind him, helped lead the Warriors to a season-opening win over the Lakers.
