Jimmy Butler was simply unstoppable on Wednesday night, as he dropped 40 points in the team’s dramatic 101-99 win against the Nets.
The Bulls trailed for most of the game, but never by more than eight points, mostly thanks to Butler’s 14-of-29 shooting performance.
Butler hit a clutch shot in the paint to give the Bulls a 99-97 lead with under a minute remaining — their first since back in the first quarter. A Brook Lopez layup tied the game, which gave the Bulls the chance to play for the final shot.
Luckily they have Butler, who calmly sank a tough stepback jumper for the 101-99 win in the final seconds.
