Jimmy Butler: Hands out season-high seven assists in win

Butler has always been an above-average free-throw shooter, but he’s been able to take his proficiency to even greater heights through the Bulls’ first seven games. He’s knocked down an impressive 51-of-57 (89.5%) free-throw tries, with that percentage a full eight points above his career rate. In addition to his good work from the charity stripe Monday, Butler’s assists and steals totals were also season highs, translating to an effective DFS night for the swingman.
