Golden State Warriors wing Jimmy Butler suffered a season-ending torn right ACL in the 135-112 win over the Miami Heat, as Shams Charania has reported.
Butler’s injury came at the 7:41 mark of the third quarter of the game.
He leaped to grab an entry pass in the middle of the paint and collided with Heat guard Davion Mitchell, and Butler’s right knee appeared to twist on the landing, sending him sprawling to the court in agony.
After this turn of events, the Warriors, who are currently eighth in the West, have lost their second biggest asset behind Steph Curry.
