Jimmy Butler (ankle) has been cleared to return for Game 3 against the Knicks, the Heat announced Saturday. Butler was able to finish Game 1 after injuring the ankle with five minutes left in regulation, but missed Miami's Game 2 defeat.
Considering the Heat had three days off since Game 2, it isn’t much of a surprise that Butler was able to do enough to make sure he was ready for Game 3. The bigger question isn’t if he’ll play Saturday. It’s what he’ll look like once he’s on the floor. The ankle injury Butler sustained in Game 1 looked fairly serious when it initially happened.
Once Butler sat out Game 2, there was no question it was bad. There was no way Butler would sit out a playoff game otherwise. If he can get back to the dominant form he showed in the Bucks’ series, Miami is in a great spot. If Butler isn’t close to 100 percent, it’ll be an uphill battle for the Heat the rest of the way. —Butler injured his right ankle with five minutes remaining in Game 1. He was able to finish that contest while playing with a noticeable limp.
