Butler, 31, has only played in two games this season. He is averaging 11.5 points, 6.0 assists, 4.5 rebounds and 4.0 steals through those two games this season.
The All-Star missed back-to-back contests against the Milwaukee Bucks due to a sprained ankle. Although the Heat got decimated by the Bucks on Tuesday night, they bounced back with a win on Wednesday night.
Now, the Heat will take on the rising superstar Luka Doncic and the Mavs.
The Heat have a 2-2 record this season.
