The quality that separates Jimmy Butler from the rest of his contemporaries is his unparalleled self-belief, which may very well be the defining quality of elite players. Butler has immense confidence in himself, a quality that has inspired his fans, including the tennis sensation Coco Gauff. In the Heat’s journey to the Finals, Miami was initially leading the series 3-0 against Boston in the Eastern Conference Finals. However, the Celtics won three consecutive games, forcing a decisive game 7.

Despite the Celtics stealing game 6, Butler confidently stated in a post-game press conference that the Heat would win game 7. True to his words, not only did the Heat emerge victorious in game 7, but they also convincingly defeated the Celtics on their home court. Gauff, inspired by Butler’s mindset, approached the French Open with a similar determination. After losing the first set 3-6, she rallied and won the next two sets 6-1 and 6-2 to overcome Rebeka Masarova. After her win, she stated, “Honestly, today, I told myself if Jimmy Butler didn?t freak out when they were up 3-0 and all of a sudden it?s 3-all, then I shouldn?t freak out after losing the first set.?

Jimmy Butler, too, holds a deep admiration for the remarkable 19-year-old tennis prodigy. He shared a video of Gauff displaying her dominance over her opponent during the French Open 2023 on his Instagram story. The rising tennis star has astounded the world with her exceptional performance, successfully advancing through the first three rounds of the tournament. Notably, she recently secured a victory against Russian tennis star Mirra Andreeva and is now set to face off against Slovak, Anna Karolina Schmiedlova. This is, however, not the first time Gauff witnessed Butler’s confidence.

The Miami star once invited Gauff to a regular season game. The young tennis star had scheduling issues and told Butler that she won’t be able to make it.
