Jimmy Butler was not happy with Buddy Hield toward the end of the first quarter of Tuesday's game.
During an inbounds play with less than one minute remaining in the opening frame, Butler's pass intended for Hield was intercepted by Magic guard Desmond Bane. After the apparent miscommunication between the two teammates, Butler shared a not-so-subtle threat to the Warriors guard.
"Put your hands up," Butler shouted. "I'm never passing you the ball again."
Yikes.
It appears Hield is on a short leash with Butler.
Of course, the two have a great relationship off the court that has been adored by Dub Nation since Butler was traded to the Warriors in February.
But Butler is a fierce competitor, and perhaps his warning was an attempt to motivate Hield to better lock in as the Warriors
