Jimmy Butler leads Bulls in win over Pelicans
Chicago Bulls guard Jimmy Butler filled up the stat sheet during a 107-99 win over the New Orleans Pelicans on Saturday, scoring 28 points with eight rebounds, six assists, four steals, two blocks and three 3-pointers.
What It Means:
Butler missed two and a half games with an illness but played 39 minutes in his return, showing no ill effects. He and Dwyane Wade helped push the Bulls to victory on Sunday and now Butler will face the tough task of facing the Memphis Grizzlies Sunday without Wade.
Our models project Butler for 25.2 points, 6.4 rebounds, 5.1 assists and 1.7 steals over 37.6 minutes against the Grizzlies.
