He seems like a backup or fringe starter. Sorta like Monte Morris.

His quickness won't be special, but his shooting should be top tier...and unlike a Cam Thomas, who also has the shooting, Butler has the handle + vision to become a quality starter for a team with other playmakers (like us). He has a lot of the same things going for him that IQ did as a prospect, only his arms aren't as long and he has a much more developed/polished floor-general-game

I think Monte Morris would be a quality starter for us too. I wasn’t trying to bash Butler. You know I like him a lot. He just might not have that upside as the other guards in the draft.
