Jimmy Butler III Health, Injury Updates & History

Returned from missing seven game games due to a toe injury in his right foot with no restrictions. We expect him to be fully recovered moving forward.

Butler is returning today from a mild irritation to a toe joint in his right foot.

Butlers toe in his right foot is reported to be improving and he is expected to be back soon which would align with a mild irritation to let the MP joint recover.

Butler will not play Friday Jan 5 due to an injury to his right foot reported as an irritation in the MP joint of his toe.

Butler left the game on Dec 30 early with a right foot injury. X-rays were negative and Butler will be monitored ahead of the next game on Jan 1 against the Clippers.
