Timberwolves' Jimmy Butler (wrist) wearing wrap during Sunday's warmups
ESPN's Tim MacMahon reports Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Jimmy Butler was seen wearing a wrap on his right wrist as he warmed up for Sunday's Game 1 against the Houston Rockets.
What It Means:
It's unclear when Butler may have injured his wrist, but the fact that it's on his shooting wrist is of slight concern. However, he downplayed the wrap by saying, "I don't know what you're talking about. It's a good luck charm." That will have to be the case for Minnesota to stand a chance against the 1-seeded Rockets.
At $8,700, Butler is projected for 41.1 FanDuel points in Sunday's road game in Houston.
