Jimmy Butler's torn ACL has derailed the Golden State Warriors' season, leaving them to reassess their path forward just two weeks before the NBA trade deadline. The injury occurred during a game against the Toronto Raptors, resulting in an 18-point home loss where Toronto scored 145 points. With Butler sidelined, the Warriors must navigate a challenging Western Conference landscape without their second-best player.
Denver Nuggets star Nikola Jokic is expected to make his return from a hyperextended left knee injury against the Los Angeles Clippers after missing 16 games since late December. The three-time MVP's comeback keeps him in contention for season awards, provided he meets the 65-game eligibility threshold. With the Nuggets holding a strong Western Conference position, his return bolsters their playoff push.
