Jimmy Butler Will Sit Out Game 2
2 years agoMiami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (ankle) will not play against the New York Knicks on Tuesday. Butler suffered a sprained ankle in Sunday's Game 1 win and was questionable to play coming into Tuesday night. Butler went through shootaround and was reportedly moving well, but was officially ruled out. Caleb Martin and Kyle Lowry should see some extra run while Bam Adebayo will be asked to do more offensively. The next game is not until Saturday so Butler will have a few more days to recover.
