Impact Though Max Strus entered the starting five after Jimmy Butler (back) was a late scratch, Highsmith still saw plenty of playing time while starting forward Caleb Martin battled foul trouble. Highsmith ended up playing his most minutes since Dec. 20 and came through with his second double-double of the season while providing excellent production from three-point range. Unless Butler's absence proves to be a long-term one, Highsmith's big night should be viewed as an outlier rather than something he'll be able to frequently replicate.
