For Rasual Butler, just making an NBA roster in 2014-15 was a tremendous accomplishment. Left for dead after a bad stint the Raptors several years ago, Butler grinded his was through a stint in the D-League and earned himself a spot with the Pacers in 2014-2015.
Coming into the Wizards training camp, it was anything but certain that he would be on the Wizards roster for any time, let alone the whole season. To earn his roster spot for the season, Butler had to fight off numerous challenges, not the least of which being the Wizards desire to keep an open roster spot for the possibility of a Ray Allen signing later in the season.
