If you've spent any amount of time as a sports fan, you've probably heard plenty of athletes field questions about hypothetical drafts. Whether the topic is building a dream starting five or an all-time trash-talking roster, most of those discussions are fairly similar. Jimmy Butler<\/a>, however, does things his own way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the NBA's Orlando bubble, the Miami Heat man made headlines by setting up his own impromptu coffee shop<\/a>, which has turned into a legitimate business. In that vein, Butler provided the names of three guests he'd like to share a “dream coffee shop” with. Fittingly, none of the names have anything to do with basketball.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jimmy Butler would share a cup of coffee with Barack Obama, Neymar, and Emma Raducanu<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While the NBA's Orlando bubble might seem like an eternity ago, it only took place in during the late summer of 2020. In addition to concluding a season and crowning a champion, it also helped spawn a business. Jimmy Butler took advantage of his captive market and brought Big Face Coffee to the (relative) masses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since then, the brand has continued to grow<\/a>, and the forward has continued to delve further and further into the intricacies of coffee. As explained in a Sports Illustrated<\/a> column written by Rohan Nadkarni, Butler drinks roughly five coffees per day on the road; at home, his consumption is measured as “entirely too much.” Despite that habit, though, he insists that his favorite part of drinking coffee is the conversations shared while enjoying a drink.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In that vein, he shared the three people he'd share a “dream coffee shop hang” with. If you're expecting him to name Michael Jordan and Larry Bird, then you'll be sorely mistaken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Man, way to put me on the spot. I got three people, right? I would definitely pick Neymar; I\u2019m a huge fan. I would pick Barack Obama. I want to sit down and have a cup of coffee with Obama. And then lastly, I would pick [long pause] Emma Raducanu. She\u2019s a young baller. She\u2019s a monster. If I could share a cup with those three, I think I\u2019d be having a great time.<\/p>Jimmy Butler via Rohan Nadkarni<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

And there you have it, straight from the man himself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Butler is certainly no stranger to doing things his own way <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Jimmy didn\u2019t want to talk about basketball.

Jimmy wanted to talk about his Big Face Coffee brand and how he\u2019s building with @vanleeuwen<\/a>

$100\/cup? \u201cIt\u2019s worth it.\u201dhttps:\/\/t.co\/yAwyEbL0qn<\/a> via @FOS<\/a> @JimmyButler<\/a><\/p>— Anthony Puccio (@APOOCH) June 20, 2022<\/a><\/blockquote>
