Jimmy Butler

You can game plan for Jimmy Butler but you can’t stop him. Corralling an inbound pass with 12 seconds on the clock in a knotted game between the Chicago Bulls and Brooklyn Nets on December 28, 2016, Butler prods his defender in isolation before stepping back into a deep two as the final horn sounds. Butler’s game-winner, two of the nine points he scored in the last two and a half minutes of the game, put a finishing touch on a 40-point gem that was briefly interrupted in the fourth quarter when the All-Star swingman went down with an ankle injury. Butler finished the 2016-17 campaign with a career-first All-NBA Third Team nod.
