Jimmy Butler (illness) ruled out for Heat Tuesday versus Mavericks
Miami Heat guard/forward Jimmy Butler (illness) has been ruled out for Tuesday versus the Dallas Mavericks.
What It Means:
Butler is a late scratch after not being on the injury report. The Heat will also be without Tyler Herro (foot) and Victor Oladipo (knee) on Tuesday. Look for Goran Dragic and Kendrick Nunn to take on larger offensive roles.
numberFire’s models project Nunn for 25.9 FanDuel points versus the Mavericks and he has a $5,500 salary on Tuesday. Dragic ($4,900) is projected for 24.7 FanDuel points.
