Jared Butler News, Rumors, Updates - Phoenix Suns

Hands out nine assists Butler racked up eight points (2-9 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 4-5 FT), two rebounds, nine assists and two blocks in 25 minutes during Wednesday's 100-96 loss to Brooklyn.

Impact Butler didn't have a good shooting performance after missing seven of his nine attempts from the floor, but he salvaged his fantasy output by delivering season-high marks in both assists and blocks. Butler started due to the absence of Tyrese Maxey (knee), and he might remain in the starting lineup if Maxey isn't recovered by the time the 76ers play the Celtics on Feb. 20 after the All-Star break.

Will start vs. Brooklyn Butler will be in the starting lineup Wednesday against the Nets, Noah Levick of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

Impact Butler will join fellow 76ers newcomer Quentin Grimes in the starting lineup Wednesday in Brooklyn. With Tyrese Maxey (knee) ruled out for the matchup against the Nets, the 23-year-old guard, who was recently traded to the team, will get a chance to show Philadelphia what he can do when thrust into a larger role. This will be the first start of the 2024-25 campaign for the Baylor product.

Scores 15 points off bench Tuesday Butler finished Tuesday's 106-103 loss to the Raptors with 15 points (6-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four assists, four rebounds and one steal over 16 minutes.

Impact Butler made the most of his limited playing time Tuesday, finishing as the 76ers' second-leading scorer behind Joel Embiid (27). It was Butler's second game playing for Philadelphia since being traded by Washington at the trade deadline, and performances like Tuesday's will go a long way in carving a consistent role for himself off the bench.

Wizards trade Jared Butler to 76ers, get 1st-round pick in 2026 in deal

The Washington Wizards have traded guard Jared Butler and four second-round draft picks to the Philadelphia 76ers for guard Reggie Jackson and a 2026 first-rounder

FEBRUARY 6, 2025 • Associated Press

Headed to Philadelphia The Wizards traded Butler and four second-round picks to the 76ers in exchange for Reggie Jackson and a 2026 first-round pick, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.

Impact Butler was on a two-way deal in Washington, averaging 6.9 points, 2.6 assists and 1.3 rebounds in 11.3 minutes across 32 NBA appearances. However, the 24-year-old guard will now likely compete for depth minutes in Philadelphia's backcourt behind Tyrese Maxey and Kyle Lowry.

Inactive for Tuesday's loss Butler was a healthy inactive for Tuesday's 111-88 loss to the Lakers.

Impact Butler had suited up for each of the team's first 41 games of the season, but since he's a two-way player, he can be active for just nine more games before Washington would have to upgrade him to a standard contract to make him eligible for NBA action. As such, Butler could be in line for more occasional inactive statuses in the weeks to come until the Wizards are able to find room for him on the 15-man roster.

Steps up with team-high 26 points Butler logged a team-high 26 points (11-19 FG, 3-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, seven assists and one steal across 20 minutes during Wednesday's 109-103 loss to the 76ers.

Impact Butler provided a major boost off Washington's bench Wednesday, turning in a team-high 26 points and seven assists in just 20 minutes. The former second-rounder has benefitted immensely from the recent absences of Jordan Poole (hip) and Malcolm Brogdon (foot), as Butler is averaging 19.0 points, 5.7 assists, 2.7 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 2.0 threes in 20.6 minutes over his past three games. Butler should continue to hold short-term streaming value while both Poole and Brogdon are sidelined, but he has a two-way contract that leaves him at risk of being sent back to the G League once the Wizards get healthier.

Plays well once again Butler closed Tuesday's 135-112 loss to the Rockets with 14 points (5-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five assists, one block and one steal over 22 minutes.

Impact This performances comes on the heels of a 17-point effort Sunday against the Pelicans. The Wizards are dealing with injuries to both Jordan Poole (hip) and Malcolm Brogdon (foot) right now, opening the door for Butler to be a serviceable streaming option in the short term, if not longer.

Notches 17 points Butler ended with 17 points (6-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds, five assists and one steal across 20 minutes during Sunday's 110-98 loss to New Orleans.

Impact Jordan Poole missed this game with a hip injury and is day-to-day, while Malcolm Brogdon left the game early with foot pain. Butler made the most of his newfound minutes, reaching double figures for the fourth time this season. He'll be on the streaming radar Tuesday against the Rockets if the Wizards are shorthanded.

Makes most of minutes Butler notched 14 points (6-14 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds and seven assists in 26 minutes during Sunday's 140-112 loss to the Grizzlies.

Impact The Wizards are dealing with several key injuries, opening the door for Butler to get some reps. He's played well in two straight showings, averaging 13.0 points, 3.5 rebounds, 5.5 assists and 1.5 three-pointers. If the Wizards are shorthanded when they return to action Friday against Cleveland, Butler will be on the streaming radar.

Minor role continues Butler amassed seven points (3-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT) and three assists in eight minutes during Monday's 125-112 loss to Golden State.

Impact Butler has averaged 5.6 points and 2.4 assists in 9.0 minutes per game over five appearances this season. As long as Kyle Kuzma (groin) and Malcolm Brogdon (thumb) remain sidelined, Butler should continue to play a minor reserve role.

Back with Washington Butler agreed to a two-way contract with the Wizards on Monday, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.

Impact Butler had been signed to a standard NBA contract when Washington waived him over the weekend, but the Wizards will bring him back to fill one of their three two-way slots ahead of Thursday's season opener versus the Celtics. He appeared in 40 games for the Wizards in 2023-24, averaging 6.3 points, 3.2 assists and 1.5 rebounds across 14.2 minutes per game.

Let go by Wizards The Wizards waived Butler on Saturday, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.

Impact Butler did what he could to earn a spot in the Wizards' roster for the 2024-25 Opening Night, but that won't be the case. He averaged 6.3 points per game while shooting 48.8 percent from the field across 40 regular-season appearances with the Wizards in 2023-24, and it wouldn't be surprising if he plays with their G League affiliate, the Capital City Go-Go, to start the 2024-25 campaign.

Impact After registering his first career double-double Friday, Butler followed that up with a season-high 22 points in the Wizards' regular-season finale. Over the last 10 games of the regular season, Butler averaged 10.0 points, 2.6 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.2 steals over 22.2 minutes per game.

Inks new deal Butler signed a three-year deal with the Wizards on Friday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Impact A 2021 second-round pick, Butler played sporadically over his first two seasons with Utah and Oklahoma City, respectively. He inked a two-way contract with the Wizards in July of 2023 and wasn't seeing much time with the NBA squad until a rash of injuries hit Washington in mid-March. Butler has appeared in 13 straight games, averaging 7.9 points, 4.5 assists, 2.2 rebounds and 1.2 steals in 21.2 minutes per game during that stretch. He should continue to see plenty of playing time over the final week of the regular season.
