27.4 USG%: Jimmy Butler’s usage rate of 27.4% in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals was Jimmy’s highest mark since Game 1 of the first round against the Brooklyn Nets (when it hit 33.0%). There was a very clear hitching of the wagon to Butler as the Sixers offense stagnated with Joel Embiid, JJ Redick and Tobias Harris all struggling to contribute points. While Butler didn’t exactly light it up from the floor, he was able to get to the line a few times and shot 40% from deep, bolstering his effectiveness.
