7 years agoMinnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Jimmy Butler didn't play in Sunday's All-Star game. Butler leads the NBA in minutes per game (37.3), but the Wolves have not played since Thursday. "This Timberwolves season is very, very important to me," Butler said after the game. Butler was the only player to not register any minutes in the All-Star game, but it sounds like Butler requested that coach Mike D'Antoni leave him out of the game. It's unclear if Butler is struggling with a minor injury, but most likely he just wanted extra rest. Fantasy owners should not be worried about Butler's health heading into the second half.--Andy Webb - RotoBaller
