Jimmy Butler's 22 Points Not Enough
6 years agoPhiladelphia 76ers shooting guard/small forward Jimmy Butler provided an excellent line on Wednesday, but his club still managed to pick up the loss to the Bulls by a single point. Butler connected on 8-for-18 shooting from the floor to score 22 points while adding three steals with four assists and three boards on the night. Butler played well against his former club and over his last five games is averaging a solid 17.6 points, 5.8 rebounds, 5.0 assists, and 2.0 steals, but is shooting just 40.0% in that span. He is not the top-20 player he was last season, but Jimmy Buckets is still in the upper tear of fantasy's best.
