Wade on Butler: Nothing can come between bond we've built

Good luck trying to break the bond between Dwyane Wade and Jimmy Butler.

The two All-Stars grew close as Chicago Bulls teammates last season, and even though Butler is no longer on the squad, he kept his word by going to Wade's basketball camp this past weekend.

Wade joined Butler in Chicago last summer in free agency, and they became fast friends as the team's leaders, helping the Bulls squeak into the playoffs.

Butler, who spent his entire six-year NBA career in the Windy City, was sent to the Minnesota Timberwolves in a draft-day trade. He was actually in Paris hanging out with Wade when they found out.

The 35-year-old Wade remains with his hometown Bulls, and will earn $23.8 million in 2017-18 in the final year of his contract.
