Jimmy Butler Trends After Getting Hair Extensions For Fake Dreads
Jimmy Butler Shows Off New Hairstyle ‘Fake Dreadlocks’
Jimmy Butler is coming off of his 11th season in the NBA, becoming a bonafide superstar in Miami, leading the Heat to the 1-seed and the Eastern Conference Finals last season.
The baller is gradually becoming a force to reckon with after averaging 27.4 points, 7.4 rebounds, 4.6 assists, and 2.1 steals per game in the postseason.
Jimmy Butler is a recognizable face for NBA fans, diehard or casual, but when pics and videos from Butler’s latest offseason workout with Chris Brickley popped up on Instagram, fans had to do a double take.

That’s because Butler, who has always kept his hair fairly short, suddenly appeared with long dreads, bleached at the end, which is a very different look from the Heat star than we are accustomed to.
Butler started wearing braids this season in Miami, which was the start of the hairstyle change, but I don’t think anyone was anticipating him taking that to a new level with the extra long look.
Butler showed off the hair transformation on his Instagram as he got the extensions put in for the new look. “Now you see me now you don’t,” he wrote in the caption.

Folks on Twitter have since been reacting to the transformation. “He went from Jimmy Butler to Jim Morant,” someone commented. “Bro when did Jimmy Butler grow dreadlocks?” another user asked.
