Jimmy Butler had a stuff on James Harden Monday night that the Rockets star will probably never forget. 

More from Chicago Bulls

Chicago Bulls guard Jimmy Butler is one of the fastest rising stars in the NBA, and a lot of that has to do with his ability on the defensive side of the ball. Monday night against the Houston Rockets, Butler had this defensive ability on full display when he was matched up with one of the better offensive players in the game.

Monday night the Bulls and Butler took on the Houston Rockets in a match up between two of the NBA’s best teams. At one point in the game, Butler was matched up on the scoring-happy Harden, who decided that he maybe wanted to pop a three in Butler’s face and embarrass him a little bit.

Well, as it would turn out, it was Harden who suffered the embarrassment, as Butler stuffed him all the way to the floor.

Next time that Harden is matched up with Butler, he probably won’t try this again.
