If the Toronto Raptors blowing a 19-point lead to the Chicago Bulls was dynamite, then this stepback 3-pointer from Jimmy Butler in the extra period is what lit the fuse that blew the opposition sky high and out of sight.
The 123-118 overtime win for Chicago was the team's 10th straight victory against Toronto dating back to the 2013-14 regular season.
Butler finished with 42 points, 10 boards, five dimes, and three steals in 44 minutes. It's the third time in his last six games he's scored 40 or more points.
