The Miami Heat will be without star guard Jimmy Butler again in their second-straight game against the Milwaukee Bucks, according to the NBA’s injury report.
Butler suffered a right ankle injury in the Heat’s season opener last week against the Orlando Magic. He attempted a comeback against the New Orleans Pelicans on Christmas Day, but was forced out of the game at halftime after aggravating the injury.
Milwaukee made a record 29 three-pointers in their 144-97 rout of the Eastern Conference champion Heat on Tuesday.
