Not sure if this has been posted yet, but I thought everyone here would enjoy it.

Questions and answers with Jimmy; with a highlight of his views on Wiggins.

I hadn't seen the whole interview. Thanks for posting, Future!

Q: Do you care Lonzo Ball ranked above you in All-Star Game fan balloting?

A: I don't give a damn. To tell you the truth, I don't even want to play in the All-Star Game. I pride myself on guarding and playing hard. Like, leave me out of it.

Q: Yeah, there's no place for those things in the All-Star Game, is there?

A: No, I'm cool. Let me go on vacation with DeAndre Jordan or something like that. That's what I was planning.

Have I said how much I love Jimmy Butler? Man, the guy is a great interview too. I enjoy that he either doesn't care about individual accolades or he doesn't let it be known. He maintains that "humble man from Tomball, Texas" personality.

I also think it's interesting how close of a relationship he has with DeAndre Jordan.

It's fun watching this interview and other interviews since coming to the Wolves including in the lockeroom. He really seems comfortable just talking he doesn't seem defensive just joking around with people. In this video he is giving MGH who walks by a hard time about not wearing shoes. There is a video from the beginning of this month of him doing the lookeroom interview with Telling MGH's kid to come over and he picked him up and held him through the whole interview. He is becoming one of my favorite players on the team.

Has anyone heard how many games he could miss?

Wait, fans picked Lonzo Ball over Jimmy? Thanks a lot ESPN. I hate the NBA
