Last night he scored 21 points off eight-of-17 shooting.
He also added nine rebounds and seven assists.

‘THIS IS THE LAST RIDE’
“Steph, he looked like he got belief after the trade,” the 34-year-old said.
“He looked at me and he said, ‘Man, it’s crazy because it just dawned on me that, like, this is it. This is the last ride.’
“And I said, ‘Let’s do it.’ It was an emotional moment.”
After last night’s game, in which Butler turned the ball over three times, the former Heat star admitted that he has to be better.
