Butler received a DNP-CD Saturday after playing the previous 54 games.

Analysis:

Bradley Beal (leg) and Paul Pierce (knee) returned to the lineup, and all five starters played at least 30 minutes. Otto Porter, Jr. and Garrett Temple have shown enough recently to give coach Randy Wittman the leeway to dissolve Butler from the rotation for one night. Since January 21st, Butler's shooting 22 percent from beyond the arc on 3.4 attempts per game, the worst mark on the team.
