Jimmy Butler is headed to the Golden State Warriors after one of the most tumultuous trade requests in recent NBA history. News of Butler's desire to get traded first came in December and then culminated with three separate suspensions as the situation grew increasingly intolerable for the Heat.

The Jimmy Butler trade saga with the Miami Heat is finally over. The Golden State Warriors are finalizing a multiteam deal to acquire Butler from Miami, ESPN's Shams Charania reported Wednesday. Butler will join Stephen Curry and Draymond Green on a team that -- as of Wednesday evening -- is tenth in the Western Conference.

The Heat and the Golden State Warriors have agreed on a deal that sends Butler to the Bay Area, a person with knowledge of the talks said Wednesday. The trade ends a Miami era for Butler that will be remembered first for two trips to the NBA Finals and then three suspensions toward the end of a hostile breakup.
