Jimmy Butler III Out for Season With ACL Tear
Golden State Warriors guard/forward Jimmy Butler III (knee) tore his right ACL in Monday's win over the Miami Heat and is out for the rest of the season, Anthony Slater of ESPN.com reports. This is very unfortunate news for the veteran, who entered Monday averaging 21.3 points on 53 percent shooting this month. He has notched 20.0 points, 5.6 rebounds, 4.9 assists, and 1.4 steals across the season. Butler III will be on a huge $56.8 million contract next season, but he could miss a large chunk of the campaign. The Warriors will look for more production from Buddy Hield and Gary Payton II going forward.
