Jimmy Butler game-time decision vs. Thunder; Dwyane Wade expected to sit Tuesday

CHICAGO -- Chicago Bulls All-Star swingman Jimmy Butler is a game-time decision Monday night against the Oklahoma City Thunder because of a cold.

"He did not participate in shootaround this morning," Bulls head coach Fred Hoiberg said. "He's home, not feeling well. Hopefully he gets better as the day goes on but [his status] will go all the way up until a game-time decision if he plays or not."

Hoiberg said Butler was dealing with a fever, body aches and flu-like symptoms.
