Jimmy Butler Misses Practice For Personal Reasons
2 years agoMiami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (personal) wasn't in practice Thursday. He had had to deal with a personal issue and is fully expected to be ready to play Friday versus Chicago. Butler always rises to the occasion and we should see a big performance from him in the decisive play-in game. The former Bull struggled with his shot Tuesday against Atlanta but still notched 21 points with four rebounds, nine assists, two steals and one block. He has averaged 24.5 points per game in his previous 12 career appearances against his former team, which is by far the highest mark Butler has managed against any opposition.
