Butler appeared to subtly respond to some of this ongoing turmoil at his coffee shop. He went up to one of the baristas and said “this is our best guy” right here. The former Team USA gold medalist at the Olympics then joked that he gave his barista at BIGFACE in Miami a compliment.

And he might have taken a shot at the Miami Heat — possibly long-time team president Pat Riley — in a video posted on his Instagram story. Butler was at his BigFace Coffee brick-and-mortar location in the Miami Design District this week, it seems, when the six-time NBA All-Star posted a video that is already making the rounds.
