Jimmy Butler Flirts With Triple-Double Saturday
1 year agoMiami Heat forward Jimmy Butler had an awful 5-for-21 shooting night in Saturday's Game 6 against Boston, but he was still productive all over the court and nearly had a triple-double. The Heat star finished a painful 104-103 loss with a team-high 24 points, 11 rebounds, eight assists and one steal. Butler saved his scoring total with 12-for-14 shooting at the free-throw line and a 2-for-4 effort from deep. Following the very inefficient shooting performance, Butler should be very fired up for Monday's Game 7. He went for 35 points on 13-for-24 shooting in last year's Game 7 against the Celtics in the Eastern Conference Finals.
