SF 2 - Jimmy Butler (Philadelphia 76ers):

Ad

Jimmy Butler seems to have a real bad boy reputation since his tantrums at the Timberwolves forced a trade through to the Philadelphia 76ers. He tried a lot and had finally gotten his wish, to play in a playoff-contending team with stars having the same mentality as him.

The 76ers have done really well with the addition of Butler to their roster. They're 17-8 for the season and on an 8-2 run. They won their last game against the Memphis Grizzlies, 103-95 and are on a 4-game winning streak.

In this time with the Sixers, Butler has already established himself as the clutch player for the 76ers, draining two last-second 3 pointers to get the win over the Charlotte Hornets and the Brooklyn Nets. In his season with 76ers, he has averaged 18 points per game along with almost 5 assists per game.

Butler is still an elite defender and is averaging an amazing 2 steals per game. In the match against the Grizzlies, he scored 21 points and chipped in with some secondary stats as well. He looks poised to perform against a strong Raptors team and should be picked in your DFS team for today.
