Jimmy Butler made his way to the locker room in the first quarter of Wednesday night's Game 2 vs. the Houston Rockets after he collided with Amen Thompson while going up for a rebound. He will not return to the game after he was diagnosed with a pelvis contusion.
Thompson appeared to stumble, and in the process undercut Butler from underneath him as he was coming down from attempting to get the rebound. Butler landed hard on his tailbone and quickly flipped over to his front side. He lay on the court and seemed to grimace with pain while holding his tailbone. Thompson also hit the floor pretty hard.
