(Chicago Bulls Jimmy) Butler, who injured the elbow in the third quarter of Sunday’s loss to the Los Angeles Clippers, admitted that it was “devastating” to learn he would be out three to six weeks.

When Derrick Rose returns from surgery, there’s no choice but to lead the Bulls on a go-for-broke title charge, Scoop Jackson writes. Story

“I’m doing all right,” Butler said after Tuesday’s shootaround. “I’m just trying my best to hurry back, being careful, of course, but I’m not going to say I’m happy. … My ligament just has to heal, and I’ve got to be able to move my left arm like I move my right before I can get out there and do anything.”
