Jimmy Butler did everything in his power to ensure the Chicago Bulls got back into the win column on Monday night.
After struggling in Sunday's embarrassing defeat to the Boston Celtics, the three-time All-Star erupted for one of his best performances of the season against the Charlotte Hornets, collecting 23 points, 11 assists, and six rebounds in a 115-109 Bulls victory.
While Butler was terrific on offense, his most important play came on the other end of floor, sealing the win with a clutch block on Jeremy Lamb with just under eight seconds remaining in the contest.
