It’s not secret that Chicago Bulls wing Jimmy Butler has become one of the premier stars in the NBA after his stellar 2014-15 season that resulted in him winning the NBA’s Most Improved Player Award.
Why did Butler earn so much respect from his peers? Because of his playmaking ability on both ends of the floor.
That ability to get things done on both ends of the floor was made clear on Wednesday night in the third meeting of the season between the Bulls and the Indiana Pacers.
With the score tied at 100 in the final seconds of overtime, the Bulls would get one final chance to win their 18th game of the season and the second in a row against a relevant name in the Eastern Conference.
