Jimmy Butler led the Warriors with 23 points (8-of-16 FGs, 6-of-10 FTs), eight rebounds, six assists, two steals, one block and one three-pointer in a 114-105 loss to the Nuggets on Monday.
With Stephen Curry struggling, Butler picked up the slack on the offensive end to lead Golden State in scoring. However, he had his own uncharacteristic struggles at the free throw line, which prevented him from having a better night. Steve Kerr said that they will consider resting Curry against Milwaukee on Tuesday, which should mean extra usage for Butler. However, there is a chance that Butler also gets a rest night. Keep a close eye on the injury report.
