blog

Jimmy Butler might be an NBA star today, but the road to his success wasn’t easy at all. Let alone all obstacles a basketball player has to face to get into NBA, Jimmy was even kicked out of home by his mother when he was just 13. And Jimmy’s dad? He was never in the scene.

So, who are Jimmy Butler’s parents? Get to know them better as this article proceeds. 

Who Are Jimmy Butler Parents?

Jimmy Butler’s parents are Londa Butler and Jimmy Butler Jr.

Reportedly, Jimmy’s dad abandoned the family when he was only an infant. So, his mother raised him all on her own. And as Jimmy turned 13, Londa had enough of her son’s behavior and kicked him out of the house saying, “I don’t like the look of you. You gotta go.”

Jimmy then went on to stay at friends’ houses, and eventually found a permanent home with the family of a high school pal, Jordan Leslie.

Fast forward to 2022, when this news blew up, fans then came up with a theory that Jimmy might be Michael Jordan’s son. How? Well, there’s Jimmy’s tremendous durability on the court with smart play-making, quick reflexes, and an ability to adapt in pressurized situations, which matched a lot to that of the NBA legend.

And also, there’s the news about Jordan’s illegitimate child reported in 1988, which is also the year of Jimmy’s birth. Furthermore, it was reported that Jordan’s son also grew up in Georgia (not Houston, Texas), where Jimmy was born and raised.
