On the opening play of the game, Butler officially recorded his first points with the Warriors in style. From near the top of the key, Buddy Hield launched a lop up to Butler for an emphatic slam in the first 15 seconds of the game.

Jimmy Butler scores 25 points on 7-of-12 shooting in his 1st game since joining the Warriors at the trade deadline.

Butler had 25 points and four assists in his first game since a trade-deadline deal from Miami following a messy split with the Heat, helping the Warriors beat the Bulls 132-111 on Saturday night. “He's a lion out there,” coach Steve Kerr said. It was an emotional night for Butler.
