Jimmy Butler Regarded As Probable For Saturday
2 years agoMiami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (knee) looks on track to play Saturday versus San Antonio, with the team listing him as probable for the contest. He is having issues with his right knee and Miami kept him out from a game earlier in the week in a back-to-back situation, but there's only one game scheduled for the team over the weekend and Butler shouldn't have any issues getting through it. The six-time All-Star has looked great again whilst in the lineup this season, averaging 21.3 points, 7.0 rebounds and 6.1 assists with 1.8 steals. The Heat are managing his right knee, but that hasn't kept Butler from averaging 34 minutes a night in the games he's played this month, so he shouldn't be limited in any way against the Spurs.
