Jimmy Butler of the Miami Heat performs at a country music concert.

There’s never a dull moment in the offseason for Miami Heat star forward Jimmy Butler.

The latest event on Butler’s summer list was performing on stage at a country music concert on Thursday evening. The Heat star’s appearance runs much deeper than taking an interest in the music genre, as it appears he is a part of an ownership group opening the new restaurant and live music venue in Chicago. Joining him in this venture is Baltimore Ravens star linebacker Roquan Smith.

The company, Welcome to the Farm, is highlighted and run by country singer and songwriter Chase Rice. Butler performed at their newly- opened Chicago location, where the veteran star spent the first six seasons of his career. They also have a venue in St. Petersburg, Florida.

When star Kawhi Leonard withdrew from the 2024 Paris Olympics, there were quiet rumblings about Butler filling the roster void. However, there are many other enjoyable opportunities in his life at this stage of his career. Boston Celtics lockdown guard Derrick White, who thrived against the Heat in Round 1 of the NBA playoffs, earned the nod instead.

There is a lot riding on this upcoming season for Butler, as he hits unrestricted free agency next summer. It was no secret he was seeking a maximum contract over the past few months, but instead, the 34-year-old is determined to prove his worth next year.
