Bulls' Jimmy Butler: Partial participant in Monday's practice
Butler (heel) participated in portions of Monday's practice, Vincent Goodwill of CSN Chicago reports.
Analysis:
The Bulls continue to handle Butler on a game-to-game basis while he nurses a sore right heel, and his status for Tuesday's game against the Raptors if firmly up in the air. The 27-year-old has missed four of the last five games, and the Bulls are just 1-4 during that span. With Dwyane Wade (wrist) doubtful to play Tuesday, the Bulls could once again be severely shorthanded on the wing if Butler is ultimately ruled out.
