March 15--Jimmy Butler graces the cover of Slam magazine's May issue, available in stores and digitally this week. An alternate cover features San Antonio Spurs forward Kawhi Leonard.
Butler and Leonard met for a photoshoot during All-Star weekend in Toronto.
Butler also chatted with Slam about his rise in the NBA. "The instruction I got from the Bulls was to give effort. With effort comes defense. If you're playing hard, you're trying to guard. That's where I made a name for myself at first," he said.
