Jimmy Butler Reveals Offseason Plans Following Warriors Playoff Elimination

Jimmy Butler was acquired to be the co-star to Curry, and was essential in getting the Warriors to the playoffs in the first place, but came up short in the end. A gluteal muscle injury caused Butler to miss a game, and he hobbled for a good portion of the series against Houston.

Outside of the 33 points in Game 3 at home against the Timberwolves, he scored less than 20 points per game in a time when the Warriors desperately needed an offensive punch.

In his exit interview, Butler remained optimistic about the offseason and what it can do for the team's chemistry. "I get to be around my guys in the off-season. We're going to get to vacay together. We're going to get our kids together," Butler exclaimed.

He continued, "We're going to get to train together, build even more chemistry, and then take this thing into training camp and into this next year, this next season, and do what we set out to do."

Integrating players into a team takes time, particularly with significant trades like the one involving Butler. As the Warriors approach a crucial offseason during the final years of Stephen Curry and Jimmy Butler's primes, it is clear that the team needs time to develop chemistry.
