UPDATE 9:37 p.m. ET: Butler will not return to Friday’s game.

Late in the first quarter of Friday’s game against the Denver Nuggets, Jimmy Butler drove towards the paint from the right side of the key. He tried to stop on a dime but rolled his right ankle in the process. He was able to walk without any assistance but headed into the locker room.

Prior to exiting, Butler contributed two points, a rebound and two assists in seven minutes.

Stan joined DraftKings in December of 2020. It was a glorious time, except for that whole COVID thing, when we got Madden streams and boisterous bat flips from the KBO. I was brought on board to bring some West Coast flavor. I especially love hoops, and most of my content is in that arena. When I walk along the beach, strumming my guitar, the beat that I hear is not one of crashing waves. No, it is the beat of the ball bouncing off the hardwood with highs provided by the squeaks of the sneakers. Ball is life.
