Jimmy Butler joins Dwyane Wade (3 Times) as the only Heat players in the play-by-play era (since 1997-1998) to score 20+ points in any quarter of a Playoff game
Jimmy Butler becomes the first player to score 20 or more points in a quarter on 90% FG shooting in a Playoff game since Nikola Jokic, on 8/25/20, DEN v UTA since the beginning of the play-by-play era (1997-1998).
This marks the 6th time this has occurred in NBA Playoffs history
Nikola Jokic – 21 points, 8-8 FG on 8/25/20
Kyrie Irving – 21 points, 9-10 FG on 5/23/17
Tim Duncan – 21 points, 8-8 FG on 5/17/06
Dwyane Wade – 22 points, 7-7 FG on 5/14/05
Jalen Rose – 22 points, 7-7 FG on 5/27/00
Since the beginning of the play-by-play era (1997-1998), Jimmy Butler’s 22 points ties Dwyane Wade (3rd quarter, 05/14/2005) for the most points scored by a Heat player in any quarter of a Playoff game.

Play off jimmy…the real GOAT…
Man knows how to hit the midrange j I miss watching kobe and pierce and all the old school guys that had the bag like that
The Bucks are up 11. This scoring output ain't meaning shit.
Man, I just love Jimmy's game. It's not flashy, but it is so damn pure. He's like a technician with a flair for the dramatic. He is as close to a throwback player as we have in the league today.
His number is 22 and he scored 22 in first quarter this can’t be a coincidence the nba is hiding something from us😳
Dame please go to Miami with jimmy you'll have a legit two way bucket he can drop 30 and gaurd the best player for the first in your career bro please
