Lol I wasn't trying to impress anyone with that. Was just information.
Jimmy is not surprisingly doing well in interviews....

Haha, just giving you a hard time for watching the NbA combine.
Looks like Butler measured in at 6-6" without shoes and 6-7¾" with. He was 222.2 lbs. Wing span of 6-7½", and his body fat was 5.4%t. His standing reach was 8-5½".

It was a first for me, was flipping through channels and figured I might be able to catch a glimpse of Jimmy.
