The surgical intervention was performed on Monday morning in Los Angeles.\n\nButler suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and will be out for the rest of the season. The team will not provide updates on his progress until &#8220;early next season&#8221;, suggesting his return could be in the middle of the 2026-27 campaign.\n\nThe injury occurred on January 19 during a game against the Miami Heat. Butler consulted with several specialists before deciding on surgery, which was performed by Dr. Bert Mandelbaum.\n\nButler arrived at the Warriors almost a year ago, following a trade from Miami. His arrival boosted the team, leading them to a positive streak and the second round of the playoffs last season.\n\nWith Butler on the court, the Warriors achieved a 12-4 record in their last 16 games, generating internal optimism about their playoff chances. However, Butler&#8217;s injury, according to coach Steve Kerr, has limited the team&#8217;s expectations.\n\nButler has one year and $56.8 million left on his current contract. General manager Mike Dunleavy stated that he does not &#8220;foresee&#8221; a Butler trade and expects his return to the team next season.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>I think he has a style of play that can last a long time with his skill, his physique, and his mentality for the game. So, I guess, my vision for him is that he returns sometime between now and this time next year.<\/p><cite>Mike Dunleavy<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jimmy Butler Undergoes Successful Surgery, Out for the Rest of the Season Golden State Warriors star Jimmy Butler underwent successful surgery on his right knee, the team announced.
