Jimmy Butler scored 13 points and added six rebounds Wednesday night in the 76ers win over the Pelicans. He also handed out three assists and chipped in three steals and a block on defense.
Fantasy Impact:
Philadelphia's trade for Butler nearly two weeks ago has resulted in the best win streak of the still-young 2018-19 season for the team, but outside of their first victory with the seventh year guard out of Marquette - a 113-107 home win over Utah in which Butler scored 28 points and added seven assists and three rebounds - his contribution to the team's success has not translated to fantasy riches. Fantasy owners hope that as he continues to adjust to his role alongside Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons, Butler's scoring will return to the 20-22 PPG range (he's averaging 17.2 in his five games with the Sixers but has yet to eclipse 16 points in any game other than the one against the Jazz).
