Jimmy Butler and former Angel Reese teammate react to Caitlin Clark’s potential future running mate’s behind the scene work
Suspended Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler and Marina Mabrey had the props for Satou Sabally ahead of Unrivaled action. Sabally who will suit up for Phantom BC in the marquee 3×3 tournament was seen hitting the floor, with Butler getting some reps in. She later took to Instagram to share her eventful day, garnering responses from the All-Star forward and Angel Reese’s former teammate.
While Butler had a wholesome response, Mabrey was happy to be featured in the posts Sabally shared.
Jimmy Butler and former Angel Reese teammate react to Caitlin Clark’s potential future running mate’s behind the scene work
Satou Sabally is all set to make her Unrivaled debut later this week and the work with a fellow forward in Jimmy Butler will be a massive help, but the news that put her in the spotlight was her announcement of not suiting up for the Dallas Wings in 2025. This has led to speculations about her next landing spot, with strong links to Caitlin Clark-led Indiana Fever.

Amid Jimmy Butler training session, Indiana Fever pegged to be the next destination for Satou Sabally
News of Satou Sabally exiting the Dallas Wings doesn’t come as a surprise as the forward had already hinted as much during the offseason.
Per CBS Sports, the move also suggests that Dallas will likely use the ‘Core player’ designation to gain exclusive negotiating rights once the WNBA free agency begins.
This enables the team to work on a sign-and-trade to send her to the preferred destination.
Sabally, the former No. 2 overall pick, is one of the most sought-after free agents despite her injury-riddled run.
At the time of writing, the Indiana Fever and defending champs, New York Liberty are looked at as potential landing spots although the latter might see a clog on the floor with Breanna Stewart and Jonquel Jones.
The Fever seems the more logical choice, with the team needing frontcourt assistance.
NaLyssa Smith is one of the trade assets the side has and it will be interesting to see how Satou Sabally fares alongside Caitlin Clark if she does indeed manage to get traded to Indy.
For now, it’s wait and watch as the forward will be the cynosure of all eyes with Unrivaled starting Jan. 17.
