SAN FRANCISCO -- Golden State Warriors general manager Mike Dunleavy told reporters Tuesday night that he has no plans to move Jimmy Butler's contract prior to the Feb. 5 trade deadline, despite Butler's torn ACL and the team's desperate need for a roster upgrade to realistically compete in the Western Conference.
"I don't envision that," Dunleavy said. "Now that you've brought it up, I'd say my vision for him is to give us a boost next year the same way he did last year when he arrived."
