Rotowire
Butler chipped in 19 points (7-17 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five assists, one rebound, one block and one steal over 26 minutes during Sunday's 122-102 loss to the Bulls.
The 24-year-old finished as Philadelphia's second-leading scorer behind Lonnie Walker (31 points) in the loss. Butler was acquired by the Sixers via a trade with Washington on Feb. 6, and he was eventually upgraded from a two-way deal to a two-year contract that includes a team option for the 2025-26 campaign. The combo guard finished the season with averages of 9.0 points, 3.7 assists, 1.8 rebounds, 1.0 three-pointers, 0.7 steals and 0.2 blocks across 17.4 minutes per game in 60 regular-season appearances between Philadelphia and Washington.

76ers' Jared Butler: First double-double of season
Rotowire
Butler closed with 19 points (7-12 FG, 4-4 3Pt, 1-3 FT), two rebounds, 10 assists and one steal over 30 minutes during Saturday's 118-95 loss to the Heat.
Butler certainly turned heads with his play, as this was his first double-double of the season and also established a season-high mark in assists for the former Baylor standout. The fourth-year veteran has started in nine of his last 11 appearances, and he should continue to see steady minutes in the backcourt until the end of the regular season now that the 76ers have been officially eliminated from the playoffs. Butler has scored in double digits in six of those 11 outings while dishing out four or more assists in all but one of those games.

76ers' Jared Butler: Solid showing in OT loss
Rotowire
Butler registered 21 points (7-15 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 6-6 FT), two rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals across 37 minutes during Monday's 144-137 overtime loss to the Rockets.
Butler scored at least 20 points for just the second time this season and the first time since Jan. 8, but his numbers have been inconsistent over the last few games.

Butler has started in each of the last three games for the Sixers, but his solid contributions haven't been limited to that stretch. Making the most of his newfound role on a depleted roster, Butler has scored in double digits in four of his last six outings in March. He's averaging 11.3 points per game while shooting 47.1 percent from the floor over that stretch, and fantasy managers who need a scoring boost for the playoffs in deep formats might give the former Baylor standout an extended look, particularly if he stays in a starting role.

The 76ers were once again shorthanded Thursday, but Butler wasn't very involved in this loss.
