Jimmy Butler Sits Out Monday's Action
1 day agoMiami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (knee) will miss Monday's battle against Boston. Miami completes a back-to-back set, and its veteran star gets the night off due to knee soreness. Butler's absence boosts the fantasy value of Haywood Highsmith and Jaime Jaquez Jr. The latter will replace Butler in the starting unit on Monday, logging his first start of the campaign. Last season, Jaquez Jr. averaged 15.1 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.7 assists, and 1.3 steals when he rolled with the starters.
