This comes following reports of a significant trade that brought Portland Trail Blazers star guard Damian Lillard to the Bucks.

In an Instagram story, Butler expressed his thoughts, saying, "Yo NBA man, y'all need to look into the Bucks for tampering. You all do. I'm just going to put that out there. Y'all didn't hear it from me, but I heard it from somebody."

It's worth noting that Lillard had expressed strong interest in joining the Miami Heat, but ultimately, he was traded in a three-team deal involving the Bucks, Trail Blazers, and Phoenix Suns.

The Heat had previously upset the Bucks, who were the top seed, in the first round of the playoffs this year. Miami went on to reach the NBA Finals.
