So what will this year's look be? We're about to find out.
As for the Miami Heat, this past season ended in disappointment.
The team lost in the first round of the Playoffs to the eventual champions, the Boston Celtics, just a year after they made it to the NBA Finals.
But Miami was shorthanded against Boston with both Butler and Terry Rozier missing the series with injuries.
And this year's team will look almost identical to last year's.
The veterans -- Butler, Bam Adebayo, Kevin Love and Rozier will be joined by the younger stars Tyler Herro, Jamie Jaquez Jr. and Nikola Jovic.
Bam is fresh off his gold medal win with Team USA at the Paris Olympics and inked a five-year, $166 million contract extension with the Miami Heat.
