Jimmy Butler paces Heat with 24 points vs. BullsMarch 18, 2023 | 07:46 PM
Jimmy Butler accounted for 24 points (8-of-13 FGs, 8-of-10 FTs), seven rebounds, and one assist in Saturday's 113-99 loss to the Bulls, playing 33 minutes.
Analysis: Butler was one of three Heat players to score at least 20 points in Saturday's defeat, with Bam Adebayo and Max Strus being the others. Butler's scored 23 points or more in seven straight and eight of his last nine games, and he remains a 1st-round player in 9-cat, per-game value. Butler's up to 57 games on the season and appears well on his way to crossing the 60-game threshold for the first time since the 2018-19 campaign (65 games). The Heat finish Week 21 in Detroit on Sunday, but they only have two games on the slate for Week 22. That's a concern, but as far as Butler is concerned, that should ensure he's on the court for both. Source: Rotoworld.com
