Large/backgrid/megaNBA stars Jimmy Butler The charge was filed for allegedly failing to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars in property damage and unpaid rent for his Florida home.
On Friday, February 28, local news station WSVN-TV reported for the first time that Butler, 35, was sued by a Florida company’s five-star marketing and promotion company.
In addition to the rent-back debt, the Golden State Warriors forward allegedly left over $127,000 in property damage. In February, Butler traded from the Miami Heat to the San Francisco-based Warriors.
Five-star marketing, which owns Miami property, filed a civil lawsuit against Butler in the 11th Circuit Court of Florida, accusing NBA stars of failing to pay two months of rent for their Miami property, at $130,000 a month.
The company claims Butler remains in the House even after the two-year lease ended in August 2024. The lawsuit also accused Butler of changing the lock to a home and refusing to give the keys to a property manager who blocked maintenance personnel from entering and maintaining the property.

The five-star marketing and promotion company claimed in the lawsuit that the company “lost $387,282 in losses” and is therefore paying Butler $257,282 and entitled to guarantee its $130,000 margin.
Built in 2016, the property is worth approximately $10 million and includes five bedrooms, six bathrooms and a four-car garage, according to Realtor.com. It sold for $7.1 million in 2021.
