It ain't bothering him much.

I love how when the Bulls say 'health is a priority' it basically means 'if we don't tell the media and play through it hopefully we'll be fine for the playoffs'.

That said, we'd be struggling big time without Butler and it doesn't appear to be holding his game back that much. Hopefully it's alright.

Like every one has already mentioned it is the same injury he has had all season. And he has played great despite it.

At this point in the season, though, isn't almost every player playing with "something"?
