Jimmy Butler and Udonis Haslem got into a heated argument and had to be separated as their team took on the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday.
It all went down after the Warriors went on a 19-0 run, which apparently sparked an argument between the Miami Heat teammates. Prior to Haslem getting involved, Butler and Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra were seen exchanging words. According to Sun-Sentinel reporter Ira Winderman, Haslem was physically held back.

The final score of the game was 118-104 with the Warriors winning against the Heat, who are first place in the NBA’s Eastern Conference.
Following the game, Spoelstra joked that the argument started after they had a disagreement on where to get dinner from.
“It was pretty clear, like we have a very competitive gnarly group and we were getting our asses kicked and two straight games we were not playing to the level we wanted to play… Every single person in the huddle was pretty animated about our disappointment in how we were playing,” Spoelstra said.
