It’s not a secret to anybody that Jimmy Butler is one of the most durable and reliable players in the NBA. Ever since he broke out for the Chicago Bulls under Tom Thibodeau’s tutelage, he’s been used to playing minutes.

His stamina was at full display with theMiami Heat during the 2020 NBA Finals. He barely got any rest and even though he was clearly worn out towards the end of the games, he still got the job done on both ends of the floor.

That’s why it wasn’t a surprise to find out that his stamina goes way beyond the hardwood, as he’s also impressive when it comes to, say, pleasing women, at least according to Brazilian outlet Globo.

Jimmy Butler, NBA Stars Attended A Brothel In Brazil

The thing is that, when Butler was an up-and-coming star back in 2016, he and some teammates from Team USA attended a brothel during their trip for the Olympics. Needless to say, they had a good time:

ā€œThe hegemony of American basketball may have given players the necessary peace of mind to party before the competition began. Soon after they set foot in Rio, part of the team was in a terme in Copacabana, in the early hours of last Thursday, 4. The result? An account of R$ 16,000 ($2,900) and girls admired by what they saw off the court,ā€ the report started.

ā€œPivots DeAndre Jordan and DeMarcus ā€˜Boogie’ Cousins, wingers DeMar DeRozan and Jimmy Butler, and two other U.S. saddle stars arrived at the club around midnight with some team members and security guards. They drank a lot and didn’t leave the girls who work in the house unmarked,ā€ it continued.

And, according to the report, Jimmy Butler’s performance was so astonishing, even for the place’s standards, that the girl he was with actually had to ask her boss to give her the rest of the week off:

ā€œā€™They went to the rooms always in pairs with two or three girls,’ says a source who was present at the party. One of them, according to the same source, was astonished by Jimmy’s, say, disposition and asked for the rest of the week off,ā€ the report added.

ā€œThe stars, however, would have complained about the place. ā€˜They still stayed five hours,’ says another person who saw the players at the service. At the establishment, the visit of NBA stars is a subject forbidden to the press, but a video and photos were made on the sly,ā€ the report concluded.

Jimmy Butler ended up averaging 5.6 points, 2.5 rebounds, and 1.4 assists per game in just 14.3 minutes a night in the Olympics but it’s pretty safe to say that he made a huge impact in Brazilian soil.
