Miami Heat announced that Butler is definitely out for the last Play-In game versus the Chicago Bulls, while Shams Chanaria notes that Butler is expected to be out for "multiple weeks."

Butler picked up a right MCL sprain. The superstar was injured in the 105-104 Play-In loss to the Philadelphia 76ers.

The absence of Butler will have important ramifications on the Heat's post-season adventure, which will either end or continue in the do-or-die game against the Chicago Bulls on April 19.

Against the 76ers, Butler recorded 19 points, 4 rebounds, 5 assists, and 5 steals in 39 minutes.
