Bulls' Jimmy Butler (knee) getting healthier, likely out until after break
Chicago Bulls guard/forward Jimmy Butler (knee) is feeling "a lot better," but there is still no timetable for his return.
What It Means:
Butler will not play on Monday and is extremely doubtful to return on Wednesday versus the Atlanta Hawks, leaving his status for Sunday's All-Star Game up in the air. The good news: it sounds like Butler has a very real chance of resuming fantasy production on the other side of the break, so those with him on the roster just have to sit tight for now. In the interim, E'Twaun Moore, Tony Snell, Doug McDermott and Mike Dunleavy will all be in the mix for extra run.
Butler ranks eighth with a 12.2 nERD in 48 games played this season. He's averaging 22.4 points, 5.2 rebounds, 4.3 assists, 1.7 steals and 1.1 3-pointers per contest.
