Even as Butler admittedly out of game shape and hasn’t had a practice to learn Golden State’s plays, he has scored 45 points in two contests. He’s gotten to the line for 28 foul shots, which has ripple effects in itself.

Curry, who is averaging 23.3 points per game this season, scored 34 against the Bulls before dropping 38 on the Bucks. As a team, Golden State is 18th in the NBA in scoring at 112.2 points per game, and have scored 128.5 on average in the two games with Butler.

The Bucks have been without leading-scorer Giannis Antetokounmpo for the past four games. The results without the two-time NBA MVP have been mixed, dropping to the Hawks and Thunder while surpassing the 76ers and Hornets with much-needed wins.
