You might think staying on a mega cruise ship during the Olympics would be a luxury for members of Team USA’s basketball team. With all things considered like the threat of zika virus, crime and horrible conditions in the Olympic village, staying on a luxury liner sounds like the best scenario for the team. That is unless your name is Jimmy Butler. Apparently he has a fear of water and it is very real. You know some of the teammates had to mess with him over it.

“Jimmy Butler doesn’t like water,” DeAndre Jordan told SI.com’s Chris Chavez. “So we were talking about, ‘Would you jump off the boat or would you get in?’ (He says), ‘No and don’t play with me about it.’ He definitely does not like the water at all.”

For obvious reasons, Butler opted against a room with a view.

​”(Jimmy) don’t want to be near the water,” Draymond Green said. “He doesn’t want his room facing the water. Nothing. It’s incredible to me.”
