Jimmy Butler could miss 3-4 weeks after suffering a Grade 2/3 ligament strain and a small bone impaction injury to the left elbow in the third quarter of Sunday's loss to the Clippers. (Adrian Wojnarowski on Twitter )
Fantasy Impact:
He avoids surgery and KC Johnson reports that the Bulls will take a look at Butler on a week-to-week basis and he could possibly return in three weeks. Tony Snell will take over for the All-Star Butler in the starting lineup. Snell is averaging 13.9 PPG off the bench this month. He is a must pickup with Butler out.
