The clearest piece of evidence of Jimmy Butler's value came on Saturday night, when his defensive stop and game-winning shot vaulted the 76ers over the Charlotte Hornets, 122-119 in overtime.
The entire sequence only took 20 seconds of game time, but in that short span many of Butler's strongest skills are perfectly encapsulated.
Butler is an excellent isolation, on-ball defender and his persistence paid off when he was tracking Kemba Walker with the game tied 119-119 in OT. Walker had already gone off for 60 points and was ready to win the game and increase his insane stat line.
