The Warriors spent little in acquiring Jimmy Butler from the Miami Heat and in turn received a chance at NBA Finals.

In nearly 1,000 possessions prior to the playoffs, Golden State had a plus-12.8 net rating when Butler was on the floor without Curry. In those same non-Curry minutes, Butler averaged 24.9 points and 7.6 assists per 75 possessions, with a 63.7 true shooting percentage.

Jimmy Butler III attempted just nine shots and finished with 14 points in the Warriors’ 117-110 loss to the Timberwolves.

Stephen Curry has been cleared for shooting drills and light on-court workouts despite a strained left hamstring.

As the Golden State Warriors prepare for a must-win Game 5 against the Minnesota Timberwolves, the team said that superstar Stephen Curry could be available for a potential Game 6 if they win Wednesday night.
