Jimmy Butler likely to stay with the Bulls
Chicago Bulls guard Jimmy Butler is now expected to remain in Chicago, according to ESPN's Ramona Shelburne.
What It Means:
Butler has been a hot commodity, with the Boston Celtics and Minnesota Timberwolves in hot pursuit, but neither has been able to match the Bulls' asking price. Where there is smoke, there is usually fire, so Chicago must really be dangling their star two-guard. Expect the trade winds to keep blowing this offseason.
Butler is one of the best players in the league, regarded as an elite two-way force. He averaged 20.9 points, 5.3 rebounds and 4.8 assists per night while posting an 8.6 nERD, which ranked 15th in the NBA.
