Comes close to triple-double
Butler ended Saturday's 104-96 win over the Pelicans with 24 points (7-15 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 10-14 FT), eight rebounds and 10 assists in 37 minutes.
Analysis
Butler had to embrace a bigger role on offense due to the absence of Stephen Curry (quadriceps) and fully delivered, leading the team in scoring and assists while finishing just two boards shy of a double-double. Butler proved he's more than capable of carrying the Warriors if needed, and he should experience a sizable uptick in usage rate -- and thus, in numbers -- as long as Curry remains out. That should be the case as well when the Warriors take on the Thunder on Tuesday, another game in which Butler figures to have a high usage rate.

Drops team-high 21 in loss
Butler accumulated 21 points (6-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 7-7 FT), five rebounds, five assists and two steals in 33 minutes during Wednesday's 104-100 loss to the Rockets.
Analysis
The 21 points led the Warriors on the night, as Butler scored at least 20 points for the sixth time in his last nine games. The veteran forward is averaging 21.3 points, 6.1 boards, 5.4 assists, 2.3 steals and 0.9 threes over that stretch, but his usage could be about to spike if Stephen Curry (quadriceps) misses significant time after exiting Wednesday's loss in the fourth quarter.
