Bulls guard Jimmy Butler hit a Christmas buzzer beater over Thunder forward Kevin Durant at the end of the first quarter.

Jimmy Butler is an absolute magician.

The Chicago Bulls’ guard has brought a relentless effort just like he always has on Christmas. The Bulls came out of the gate firing on all cylinders against the Oklahoma City Thunder, which is a welcome sight for many after the Bulls’ struggles recently.

The team is always energized when Butler is making the big plays on the court, and with Butler going against Kevin Durant on Christmas, there’s going to be a lot of big plays on the court.

Butler struck first for the Bulls, when he hit a buzzer beater at the end of the first quarter over Durant.

Butler was absolutely cold-blooded on the play, as Durant got his long arms up in the air, but it wasn’t enough to stop Butler. Butler was feeling it from all over the court early and when he is on like this, it’s hard for anyone to stop the Bulls.

Perhaps the key to the Bulls turning things around is a lot more simple than others think. Get the ball to Butler and watch good things happen on the court.
