Won't play Saturday
Butler (illness) won't play in Saturday's game against the Magic.
Analysis
Butler wasn't expected to play Saturday after being tabbed doubtful due to a stomach illness. His absence should open up additional opportunities for Jaime Jaquez and Pelle Larsson. Butler's next chance to play will come Monday against Brooklyn.

Unlikely to play against Orlando
Butler (illness) is doubtful for Saturday's game versus the Magic, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports.

Uncertain to play Saturday
Butler, who played just seven minutes in Friday's 104-97 loss to the Thunder due to an illness, won't be part of the Heat's traveling party to Orlando, and his status for Saturday's game for the Magic is uncertain, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis
Butler made a brief visit to the locker room in the first quarter of Friday's after appearing to roll his ankle, but the Heat ruled him out shortly thereafter due to a stomach bug, per NBA reporter Chris Haynes. He finished the contest with two assists and no other statistics during his time on the court. Winderman relays that despite not traveling with the team, Butler could rejoin the Heat at some point before Saturday's 7 p.m. ET tipoff. If Butler is ruled out for the second leg of the back-to-back set, Jaime Jaquez would likely move into the starting five for Miami after he opened the second half of Friday's game with the Heat's other starters.

Won't return Friday
Butler (illness) won't return to Friday's game against the Thunder, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports. He finished the game scoreless (0-0 FG, 0-0 FT) and with two assists.
Analysis
Butler initially limped off the field following a collision, but he was feeling ill afterward due to a stomach bug, according to NBA reporter Chris Haynes, and the Heat won't risk having him continue to play. Terry Rozier, Pelle Larsson and Jaime Jaquez are expected to see minutes with Butler sidelined.
