BRIEF: Jimmy Butler appears in Mountain Dew ad, his first national TV spot

Feb. 11--Bulls guard Jimmy Butler makes his national TV ad debut in a Mountain Dew spot, entitled "Make an Introduction." Thunder guard Russell Westbrook and Lakers forward Julius Randle also star in the commercial.

Butler signed on as a Mountain Dew pitchman in January 2015, and has since appeared on billboards and made personal appearances for the brand in Chicago.

The ad debuted in conjunction with this weekend's NBA All-Star game, which Butler would have participated in if not for a knee injury. He will still attend the festivities in Toronto.
