Jimmy Butler: Will start vs. Wizards

Butler (knee) will play in Wednesday's game against the Wizards, Vincent Goodwill of CSN Chicago reports.

Analysis:

Butler returned from a three-game absence to play Monday against the Raptors, and finished with 13 points, six assists, five rebounds, and two blocks in the Bulls' 109-107 victory. As expected, Butler will be in the starting lineup again Wednesday after initially being listed as probable with knee inflammation. Don't expect Butler, one of the NBA's toughest players, to face any sort of minutes restriction Wednesday.
