Jimmy Butler (groin) doubtful for 76ers Wednesday
Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Jimmy Butler (strained groin) did not participate in Tuesday's practice and is doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets.
What It Means:
Butler left in the first quarter of Monday's game against the Detroit Pistons and didn't return. An MRI revealed the injury is "nothing significant," so Butler shouldn't miss more than a game or two. Furkan Korkmaz and Landry Shamet will likely see an uptick if Butler sits.
Jimmy Buckets is averaging 38.9 FanDuel points through 22 games this season. numberFire's models expect him to record 28.5 points, 5.6 rebounds, 5.1 assists, 1.9 steals, and 2.7 3-pointers per contest over the remainder of the year.
