Apr 20, 2025; Houston, Texas, USA; Golden State Warriors forward Jimmy Butler III (10) walks on the court during the second quarter against the Houston Rockets at Toyota Center. Mandatory Credit: Troy Taormina-Imagn Images The Golden State Warriors are expected to have Jimmy Butler back for Game 4 of their Western Conference first-round playoff series against the Houston Rockets after he missed Game 3 with a left pelvic contusion, ESPN reported.
In addition to the pelvic injury, Butler also was experiencing glute soreness after he was knocked on his backside while pursuing a rebound in the 10th minute of Wednesday’s 109-94 loss to the Rockets in Game 2 and did not return.
Without Butler in Game 3, the Warriors rebounded with a 104-93 victory behind 36 points from Stephen Curry and will be home again Monday looking to take a 3-1 series lead.
Butler, 35, averaged 17.9 points with 5.5 rebounds and 5.9 assists in 30 regular-season games for the Warriors after he was acquired in a trade from the Miami Heat on Feb. 6. He averaged 14.0 points with 4.5 rebounds and 3.0 assists in the first two games of the current series.
In 14 career seasons, primarily with the Chicago Bulls (2011-17) and Heat (2019-25), Butler has averaged 18.3 points with 5.3 rebounds and 4.3 assists. He has been named an All-Star six times and earned All-NBA second-team honors in 2023.

Rockets need Jalen Green to get going to stave off elimination by the Warriors
SAN FRANCISCO — About 30 minutes after the Houston Rockets’ gut-wrenching 106-103 Game 4 loss to the Golden State Warriors, a dispirited Jalen Green sat at his locker, attempting to process a swirl of emotions. Most of his teammates had departed for the buses, leaving behind an empty, despondent locker room.AdvertisementGreen, fully dressed, stared out at the entryway, almost as if he were searching for an answer that wasn’t coming.In that moment, Green was more than just a member of a Rockets team on the brink of elimination, once again at the hands of those pesky, feisty, battle-tested Warriors. He was more than a player learning hard playoff truths about how a defense can completely nullify an offensive weapon. In that moment, Green was simply a man down on his luck.An hour before tipoff, as Green was going over film […]
