Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler is feared to have suffered an MCL injury during Wednesday’s 105-104 play-in tournament loss to the Philadelphia 76ers, sources told The Athletic’s Shams Charania.
Butler is set for an MRI on Thursday, according to Ira Winderman of the Miami Sun-Sentinel.
Butler appeared to get hurt when Sixers forward Kelly Oubre Jr. landed on his leg after the Heat star’s layup attempt.
