Minnesota's Jimmy Butler (knee) is a game-time decision on Thursday
Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Jimmy Butler (knee) will be a game-time decision for Thursday's game against the Denver Nuggets.
What It Means:
Butler was originally considered doubtful for the game, so he's probably still a long shot, but it sounds like he'll test his knee out in warmups before a final decision is made. Jamal Crawford and Nemanja Bjelica would lose time if Butler is able to return.
Butler has averaged 41.4 FanDuel points per game this season, and last played on February 23.
