October 28, 2007
Butler will be waived by the Rockets on Monday, the Houston Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
For a time, before Dikembe Mutombo re-signed, Butler looked like the primary backup to Yao Ming. The Rockets will go with the two big men, and use a smaller lineup with Luis Scola as a third option.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2007
2006
2005
2003
Acquired from the Spurs as part of the Luis Scola trade, Butler could see a few minutes per game backing up Yao Ming, assuming that Dikembe Mutombo, to whom the Rockets made an offer, doesn't sign.
Butler is a young player (just 23 years of age) who has some upside, but is inexperienced. Butler has more offensive potential than Elson, but is not expected to reach his full potential for a couple of years. He should expect about 15 mpg at center.
Butler has an NBA body, but is extremely raw. He’s strictly a long-term development project at this stage, and would likely be best served by spending some time in the D-league.
Unlike most players his size, Butler has excellent agility. He never plays outside of his limitations and sticks to the stuff that you want your big man to do - rebound, block shots and score garbage buckets. His size is a question for the power forward spot and his lack of shooting touch is a question for the small forward spot.
