Forgotten All-Star: Butler nets 27 points in win
Fresh off an All-Star snubbing, Jimmy Butler came through with 27 points, eight rebounds, 10 assists, three triples, three steals, one block and two turnovers across 34 minutes in Wednesday's win over the Raptors.
Advice: Butler and Bam Adebayo were All-Stars last season, but neither guy made the squad this year, and some of that probably has to do with how uneven Miami's start was this season. Luckily, All-Star appearances aren't a category in fantasy hoops, and for all intents and purposes, Jimmy Buckets has been a fantasy All-Star this season with averages of 19.5 points, 7.7 boards, 7.8 dimes and a league-leading 1.9 steals a night.
