Timberwolves' Jimmy Butler dealing with wrist injury
Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Jimmy Butler is dealing with a sore right wrist.
Butler returned from knee surgery earlier this month only to come down with a wrist injury a few games in. His wrist has been wrapped and he doesn't appear to be playing with the same aggression on the offensive end. But he's not making excuses, saying "If you put on that jersey and go out there and play, you've got to produce. You've got to do what they got you here to do. So 40, 50, 95, 100 [percent], I'm out there playing."
Through 2 games, Butler is averaging just 12.0 points, 4.5 rebounds and 2.5 assists. We give the T'Wolves just a 38.9% chance of taking Game 3 on Saturday night.
