So where does Jimmy go/fit?

Suns made sense but with Beal having a no trade clause I don’t know if that happens.

Other than that you’d have to think of teams that are win now that have a max contract they’d want to trade. The apron restrictions complicate a lot of the trades those teams can make though.

Don’t think the Nuggets would do it since Butler is a bit too old and they really need someone good at 3s,

Suns would be a waste...he'd be an upgrade from Beal sure, but Suns would still have the same problem, lots of talent and no plan or strategy. If I'm Butler I'm not sure if that's a better situation though maybe better than carrying a whole team oneself.

Yeah that’s fair the suns should trade for better defensive players, seems their play had been 3 stars so was thinking that’s at least an upgrade then.

Butler would be a massive upgrade defensively to toro Beal but he'd be the only one playing it.
