Late scratch Wednesday Butler is a late scratch for Wednesday's game against the Kings due to left hip tightness.
Impact Butler presumably suffered the injury Tuesday against the Warriors, and he'll sit out the second game of the back-to-back set. Wednesday marks his first absence of the season. In his place, more minutes could be in store for Caleb Martin, Duncan Robinson, Nikola Jovic and others.

Strong stat line in win Butler posted 23 points (6-17 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 9-9 FT), six rebounds, eight assists and one block over 37 minutes during Tuesday's 116-109 win over Golden State.
Impact Butler shot just 35.3 percent from the floor during Tuesday's victory, but he had plenty of shot volume and topped 20 points for the fifth time over the first eight games of the season. He was also productive as a distributor, matching his season-high mark in assists. Although he's been inefficient from the floor at times to begin the year, the 33-year-old is averaging 21.5 points, 6.4 rebounds and 5.5 assists in 35.5 minutes per game.

Struggles from field once again Butler contributed 13 points (4-11 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 5-7 FT), seven rebounds, six assists and two steals in 37 minutes during Saturday's 119-113 loss to the Kings.
Impact No one can deny how impactful Butler can be when he's at his best, but the veteran forward has had his fair share of struggles so far this season, and most of those woes have come as a scorer. Even though this was the first time in which he couldn't reach the 15-point mark, it's also worth noting that he's now failed to reach the 20-point plateau in three of his last six games. Plus, the four field goals he made Saturday were a season-low mark for him. Expect the veteran forward to try to bounce back when the Heat take on the Warriors next Tuesday.

Records season-high six steals Butler finished Thursday's 123-110 loss to the Warriors with 27 points (8-13 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 7-7 FT), six rebounds, eight assists and six steals over 37 minutes.
Impact Butler has been a bit inconsistent offensively, but the fact that his lowest scoring mark has been a 17-point output suggests fantasy managers shouldn't worry too much when he has an off game, and Thursday's contest was the best example of that since he had no problems bouncing back. His real value lies in his ability to put up strong numbers in other categories, and the season-high six steals are proof that he remains one of the league's best two-way players. Through six games, Butler has averaged 22.7 points, 6.3 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 1.7 steals per game.

Productive across 28 minutes Butler logged 17 points (7-15 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, five assists and two steals over 28 minutes during Wednesday's 119-98 victory over the Trail Blazers.
Impact Despite being productive while delivering a solid all-around performance, Butler posted his lowest scoring output of the campaign while also failing to make a three-pointer for the third time in five contests. The fact that Butler's worst game of the season to date was still a game in which he surpassed the 15-point mark while also posting solid numbers in other categories should tell you how much of a fantasy stud he is. There's nothing to worry about his start to the season even if he has failed to surpass the 20-point mark in two of his last four games.

Comes close to double-double Butler closed Monday's 98-90 loss to the Raptors with 26 points (8-15 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 8-9 FT), eight rebounds and four assists in 34 minutes.
Impact Butler ended just two rebounds away from what would've been his first double-double of the season, but the performance was still arguably Butler's best of the campaign, as he recorded season-best figures in both points and boards. The veteran forward has scored at least 20 points in three of the Heat's first four games.

Leads Miami to win with 24 points Butler closed Saturday's 112-109 win over Toronto with 24 points (7-16 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 9-11 FT), four rebounds and five assists in 35 minutes.
Impact Butler didn't record any defensive stats in the victory, but he provided plenty of offense with a team-high 24 points. He did much of his work from the charity stripe, going 9-for-11 from the line. Butler has scored exactly 24 points in two of the Heat's three games this season, and he's averaging 22.0 points, 6.3 boards and 4.3 assists while shooting 47.7 percent from the field and 85.2 percent from the free-throw line.
