Jimmy Butler turned down a contract extension from the Minnesota Timberwolves
He'll become an UFA next summer

As confirmed by owner Glen Taylor, Jimmy Butler has turned down a contract extension from the Minnesota Timberwolves. The Wolves offered a four-year $110 mln contract extension to Butler but his decision to turn it down was highly expected. In fact, Butler can make much more money as a free agent next season, when he could make as much as $188 million if he'll remain with the Timberwolves.
#Twolves All-Star Jimmy Butler has officially turned down the Wolves' 4-year, $110M range extension offer, per owner Glen Taylor. Full interview posting soon, which includes stuff on KAT extension talks, Thibs, filling out the roster, and #LosLynx.
