5 years agoMiami Heat point/shooting guard Jimmy Butler (personal) becomes the latest star to be absent from play Saturday as his squad takes on the Cleveland Cavaliers. Without Butler in the mix, Kendrick Nunn figures to take on an increased offensive role, while second unit members Goran Dragic and Andre Iguodala could also absorb some additional looks on the wing. An All-Star in his first season with the Heat, Butler has gotten off to a hot offensive start in February, shooting 52.1 percent from the field overall en route to 22.7 points per game. His next chance of getting back onto the floor comes Monday as the Heat run it back against the Cavs.--Jesse Borek
