Jimmy Butler has 16 & 10 in start at SF
Jimmy Butler - G/F - Chicago Bulls
Feb. 2, 2013 - 10:25 PM ET

Jimmy Butler scored 16 points and grabbed 10 rebounds in Saturday's win, with two assists and three steals in 46 minutes.

The second-year swingman continues to convert skeptics. Luol Deng's return hasn't slowed him down much and the Bulls' rash of injuries have thrust him into a major role -- in five starts he's averaging 14.2 points, 8.6 rebounds and 1.2 steals in a whopping 45 minutes per game. Plug him into your lineups until he cools off.
