Jimmy Butler Latest News
Officially ruled out

Butler (conditioning) won't play in Thursday's game versus the Magic, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. Butler has been downgraded from doubtful to out Friday while returning to competitive conditioning. Jaime Jaquez will likely receive another start in his absence. Per Winderman, Butler is expected to suit up in Saturday's matchup with Atlanta.
Considered doubtful for Thursday

Butler (conditioning/personal) is doubtful to play Thursday versus Orlando, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. Butler has been unavailable for Miami's past two contests, with a "return to competition" re-conditioning injury designation being tagged to him Wednesday. He continues to be mired in trade rumors as well, and it's unclear if he will travel to Orlando on Thursday. Terry Rozier (knee) is regarded as questionable for Thursday's game.
Won't play Monday vs. Brooklyn

Butler (illness) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Nets, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. Butler will miss a second straight game due to a stomach bug, and his next opportunity to play will be Thursday against Orlando. Dru Smith, Jaime Jaquez and Pelle Larsson are candidates to see increased playing time Monday due to Butler's illness.
Iffy for Monday

Butler (illness) is questionable for Monday's game against the Nets, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. Butler exited Friday's game against the Thunder early due to the illness before missing Saturday's contest against the Magic altogether, and he is now in jeopardy of sitting out his second consecutive outing. If the star forward is sidelined once again, Dru Smith and Pelle Larsson are candidates for increased roles.
Won't play Saturday

Butler (illness) won't play in Saturday's game against the Magic. Butler wasn't expected to play Saturday after being tabbed doubtful due to a stomach illness. His absence should open up additional opportunities for Jaime Jaquez and Pelle Larsson. Butler's next chance to play will come Monday against Brooklyn.
Unlikely to play against Orlando

Butler (illness) is doubtful for Saturday's game versus the Magic, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports. Butler exited Friday's contest against Oklahoma City early due to a stomach illness and is expected to remain sidelined Saturday. Jaime Jaquez and Pelle Larsson are candidates to receive increased playing time if Butler is ultimately ruled out.
Uncertain to play Saturday

Butler, who left Friday's game against the Thunder due to an illness, will not travel with the team to Orlando, and his status for Saturday's game for the Magic is uncertain, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. Butler rolled his ankle in the first quarter of Friday's game, and he was ruled out shortly after due to a stomach bug, per NBA reporter Chris Haynes. While Butler won't travel with the Heat, Winderman relays that the All-Star wing could rejoin the team in time to be ready for Saturday's 7:00 p.m. ET tipoff. Jaime Jaquez started for Butler in the second half of Friday's game, and the former could be in the Heat's starting lineup if the latter is unable to play Saturday.
Won't return Friday

Butler (illness) won't return to Friday's game against the Thunder, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports. He finished the game scoreless (0-0 FG, 0-0 FT) and with two assists. Butler initially limped off the field following a collision, but he was feeling ill afterward due to a stomach bug, according to NBA reporter Chris Haynes, and the Heat won't risk having him continue to play. Terry Rozier, Pelle Larsson and Jaime Jaquez are expected to see minutes with Butler sidelined.
Heads to locker room

Butler went to the locker room in the first quarter of Friday's game against the Thunder due to an ankle injury, Joel Lorenzi of The Oklahoman reports. Butler turned his ankle while colliding with Luguentz Dort, and the former walked back to the locker room afterwards. Terry Rozier, Pelle Larsson and Jaime Jaquez would be slated to see increased playing time Friday if Butler is unable to return.
