Jimmy Butler only took five shots in 22 minutes in the first half of match 2 Thursday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He collected six points in the first half, a great reason why the Golden State Warriors dragged 56-39 at halftime. Without Steph Curry, the dubs needed the former Miami Heat star to intensify and wear the team.
After the shooting of Butler 2 for 5 in the first half, a page of Warriors fan on X (formerly Twitter) noted that the attacker looked tired.
