It only took until his third game with the Philadelphia 76ers for Jimmy Butler to prove his worth to his new team.
Butler drilled a game-winning three pointer with three-tenths of a second left in overtime in a 122-119 win over the Charlotte Hornets on Saturday evening, authoring a signature moment very early in his Philadelphia career.

Butler didn’t have a huge night statistically, scoring 15 points on 4-of-11 shooting. The game-winning three was his only successful attempt of the night from beyond the arc, but it was the only one he needed.
Butler is already putting his stamp on Philadelphia and seems to be fitting in well. This probably won’t be the last big moment he contributes to as a Sixer.
