Bulls' Jimmy Butler: Erupts for team-high 37 in Tuesday's OT loss

Butler scored 37 points (11-21 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 12-14 FT) while adding 10 rebounds, six assists, two blocks and a steal in 44 minutes during Tuesday's 122-120 overtime loss to the Raptors.

Analysis:

He's now scored 20 or more points in four of five games since Rajon Rondo moved back into the Bulls' starting five, and Butler is averaging an impressive 25.0 points, 6.4 boards, 6.0 assists, 1.8 steals, 1.6 blocks and 1.4 three-pointers over that stretch. With Dwayne Wade (elbow) out for the rest of the regular season, expect Butler to continue carrying the scoring load for Chicago.
