According to ESPN’s Shams Charania, Jimmy Butler has limited to no mobility to play basketball due to the glute contusion injury he suffered in Game 2.

This muscle contusion continues to deal with “significant swelling,” which has forced him to sit out Game 3’s win against the Houston Rockets.

With Butler out, Jonathan Kuminga has seen some playing time. Quinten Post has also seen more time alongside Kuminga and Draymond Green.

“He basically has no mobility and it’s not just about playing through pain or taking painkilling shots,” said Shams Charania. “He literally cannot move well enough to play basketball tonight for the Warriors. And, remember, this is someone that has played through a grade 2 MCL spring for three quarters last season in the playoffs. The Warriors are now hopeful for Game 4 on Monday potentially for Jimmy Butler to actually play.”

Golden State remains optimistic the savvy veteran will be available for Monday’s Game 4, which takes place in Golden State. His status remains up in the air.

According to ESPN’s Shams Charania, following an MRI, the Golden State Warriors have diagnosed Jimmy Butler with a deep glute contusion. An injury suffered in Game 2 following a collision with Amen Thompson.

Right now, Butler’s status for Game 3 is in “serious jeopardy” and is unsure when he will be able to play next. He needed assistance back to the locker room and was in severe pain.

Heading into Game 3, which is set to take place in Golden State, the series is tied at one-apiece.

According to Marc Stein and Jake Fischer, the Phoenix Suns and Atlanta Hawks are both interested in hiring Bob Myers to run their organization. Two teams who desperately want to change the trajectory of their future.

Myers hasn’t been in charge of a front office since stepping down as the Golden State Warriors’ general manager and executive back in 2022-23. Since then, the 50-year-old has worked at ESPN and a brief consultant for the NFL’s Washington Commanders.

Both teams will reportedly have a hard time successfully convincing Myers to join their franchise, as the Suns have no cap space and picks, and the Hawks are on another time zone with a franchise always being stuck in the middle.

Beyond the challenges of the two franchises, Myers has not hinted wanting to leave his broadcasting job at ESPN. It’s unclear where he stands on this matter.
