Timberwolves newest acquisition Jimmy Butler wasn’t joking around when he gave out his phone number and said he’d take calls from fans.

Butler made good on his word, and posted a video of him Facetiming with a fan.

We applaud Butler for putting himself out there like that and interacting with fans. It’s still unclear exactly why he’s doing it — maybe he’s trying to sell merchandise, or maybe he just really wants to get in good with the fan base.

Whatever the reason, it’s a really cool gesture by Butler, and we’d like to see other athletes follow suit in the future.
