Jimmy Butler offered a funny remark about life at home with a newborn at home following his season debut on Tuesday night.
Butler made his first regular season appearance for the Miami Heat in the team’s 112-97 win over the Memphis Grizzlies. He missed the Heat’s first three games of the season following the birth of his daughter.
Following the Heat’s win, Butler was asked if he will be heading home to “bottles and diapers.” Butler’s response was neither — he said he would be having wine instead.

Butler scored 21 points in his debut to go along with five rebounds and three steals.
During the playoffs earlier this year, Toronto Raptors guard Fred VanVleet went on a roll following the birth of his son. Maybe Butler will ride the wave of newborn to a big season.
