Caron Butler joining Heat as assistant coach

The two-time NBA All-Star and NBA Champion, Caron Butler has reportedly agreed to join the Heat as an assistant coach for next season, which is scheduled to begin December 22nd.

Butler was seen as a "difficult teammate" for years, but that notion was dismissed after he led the underdog Heat all the way to the NBA Finals last season.

"He's just an incredible rock of stability and leadership and mentorship".

Butler qualified for two All-Star Games in 2007 and 2008 while he was a member of the Washington Wizards and won an National Basketball Association championship with the Dallas Mavericks in 2011.

Haslem started off his National Basketball Association career back in 2003 with the Heat and has stayed there ever since, signing a total of nine contracts (including this one).
