Shams: Warriors Bracing for Jimmy Butler to Miss Start of Next Season After ACL Tear

Butler will need season-ending ACL surgery “once the swelling goes down,” and warned Warriors are “already bracing for the possibility and the potential likelihood that he’s gonna miss the start of next season.” He called it a “shattering blow” to Warriors’ push around Curry, noting they’d won 12 of 16 and Butler was a “perfect fit” and “their second-best player.”
