Jimmy put a lot of effort into getting to know him. Not always the case with these.
We don't see everything that goes on with these.
also probably helps that this kid is 16, less shy than, say, a 10 year old
And after ethan left jimmy went to the practice facility and instilled the fear of god into his teammates.
Lmao
Just another example that these guys are way more than just athletes, they inspire everyday people and especially kids to strive and fight through adversity
Jimmy is a good guy.
CapnKrunk123 I think Jimmy would be the first person I would choose to play with because of his personality. Bron would be cool too but Jimmy is more like me I think.
CapnKrunk123 something you probably didn’t know jimmy was homeless and a foster kid when he was a child and that’s why he’s such a good hearted person because he knows what it’s like to be scared like that.
Yes sir
jimmy g buckets the g stands for good guy
KingMamba LA W
man that's cool that jimmy actually had him at the house, you can really tell he cares, not just a photo op
Great story! I always knew Jimmy butler to be a good dude, and have always respected him for it. I hope Ethan pulls thru.
He actually pretty good
slime kyyo I no right
@Lebron James shut the fuck up
Jimmy is currently in the NBA finals against Lebron. Crazy how far he's gone
Ethan goes to my school and we hang out now and again and Idk how but this 9 minute video did a great job capturing his fun, strong, and funny personality. Keep fighting bossman 👌👌
I sure hope Ethan is still winning the fight!
He got to play basketball, eat, drive his escalade, talk, game, and paintball. That's a real experience to cherish. Jimmy is a good dude for going above and beyond. He was already my favorite NBA player and after seeing this that will never change.
Big respect to Jimmy Butler
Jimmy butler is a good man. God bless this kid too.
I have a ton of respect for jimmy after this vid (not that i didnt before then lol) but the way he treated ethan like a normal kid. Just 2 humans having a good day together. Except one is just a little more famous than the other. That shouldnt be understated. Props to you jimmy, and prayers goes out to ethan and his family to hopefully get through this tough time 🙏
Much respect for Jimmy for doing this.much love/respect man,gl.
Jimmy let him drive the whip tho!! thats dope af
Finally an actual good video from espn
Know Kawaki haha
Mad respect to Jimmy Butler you took the time to really hangout with him. Salute to you
they need to sign ethan for a 3 yr contract for 78million
💯
Yea
if parsons has a 25mil contract i think ethan can have a super max.
Bruh knicks star player
This is why we gotta love sports and the players! God bless them!
Alexander Morel amen
My heart goes out to the parents. As a parent, it is excruciating to see your child unhappy or in pain. I hope these memorable moments of joy can bring the parents some peace also.
These stories are always touching
Thank you Jimmy, this is worth than any point you scored.😊😊
Get well Ethan, you're one tough little homie and much respect Jimmy
Jimmy the man, bet he does this without cameras aswell
Pordext he does this stuff all the time on his RUclips channel
Wish jimmy was still in Chicago
DosikMosik MC thought Ethan would talk trash to Jimmy about leaving Chicago lol.
Yeah but we won the trade but hopefully kyrie and butler come to Chicago
Unleash 10 yeah I like Lauri
Jack G. Whose ethan
Jack G. Oh shit my b lmao I watched this vid a while ago
Ethan's a blessing, praying for you Ethan! And jimmy buckets is a great dude 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I am praying for you Ethan that you get well!
Jimmy butler go see him ! I love it !!!! As a MN born and raised boy and a ex cancer patient . I respect that !!
Ethan is the True UNICORN of basketball!
Respect to jimmy for this man!
Watching these videos are as uplifting as they are heartbreaking! I can't imagine what these kids and their parents are going through. my heart goes out to them all!
Great player, great guy.
Jimmy has always been my favorite player as well, I'd give anything to meet him. I have SO much respect for him. He had a lot of challenges to overcome to get into the NBA.
Jimmy is amazing. On and off the court an amazing person 💛
Awww....Jimmy Butler... Amazing dude...and Ethan may you overcome all medical obstacles... Be tough and stay strong...
Epic man. Best wishes to Ethan and his family ❤️
This is why we love Jimmy
Being honest, I cried as soon they found about having brain tumor.
Jimmy Butler is a great guy...Minnesota loves him...hope he stays! Ethan Wolves fans send you all our love....even though you are from Wisconsin...stay strong young man!
Salute to Jimmy for this
I keep watching these on repeat cause they just make you feel warm inside
What a great guy! Ethan had the meeting of a lifetime, this was awesome
May God bless these kind hearted athlete's.
Awesome to see that both are enyoing themselves. Great to see the respect Jimmy shows to Ethan.
When it comes to dominos, jimmy doesnt care, he wanna win lol
Did someone cut up onions? I swear I'm not crying.
Love seeing stuff like this. Hopefully the time with Jimmy off-camera was just as special for Ethan
What a beautiful thing jimmy did for him. Hope and pray that he can overcome this!
I think I am gonna cry! This is so touching! 😭😭😭😭
I hope that Ethan will have a safe, happy, peaceful life and that he will recover soon
Moments like this you can take stock of your own troubles and hopefully you realise that you don't have it so bad. As Jimmy said it really puts everything in perspective.
What a wonderful thing to do for that young lad.
See, jimmy butler to me seems like such a normal awesome person. He’s freaking nice and great every time you see him
so inspiring
That boy needed his wish to be fullfilled so hard! It is great to see him happy after what he had to go through and still has to.
I cry every time a wish is Granted, But Jimmy Butler is my fav player so I'm crying even harder lol
Jimmy butler you sir have my respect
Jimmy seems like an athlete that cares tbh. Most athletes meet someone at a site and hang for a bit and that is cool and all but Jimmy went out of his way to invite them to his home and spend quality time with the boy. I've gained respect for him although he isn't on my favorite team!
These videos are the best thing ever!
This is why jimmys my favorite player
Jimmy went beyond what other athletes do with these sort of things, that’s awesome! He invites the whole family to his house they play and bond and then let’s him drive jimmy to the court to shoot some hoops and then to go paintballing! That’s awesome!
I love these segments
This was so touching
Can we get an update on Ethan?
Ethan relapsed twice in his brain. He had multiple treatments and finally achieved remission. He is just finishing his second year of college. Jimmy Butler was very gracious that day. Totally focused on Ethan. Total respect for him.
