Watch: Butler knocks down game-winning step-back jumper

USA Today Sports

Yep. The Butler did it after all.

With the Chicago Bulls in possession of the basketball during the dying seconds of the fourth quarter with the game locked at 99 apiece, All-Star forward Jimmy Butler drilled a step-back jumper in the eye of Bojan Bogdanovic as time expired to give his team the 101-99 victory Wednesday.

The big-time shot gave Butler 40 points on the night, along with 11 rebounds, four assists, and four steals as the Bulls won their second game in a row coming off six losses in seven games.

Jimmy Buckets gets buckets, baby.
