Personal Bio/PreCareer Summary

Butler was born on December 4th, 2002, in Greenville, South Carolina. He attended Christ Church Episcopal High School where he was coached by his father. As a senior, he averaged 20.0 points, 8.0 rebounds and three blocks and was named as the 2021 Class 2A Boys Player of the Year. Butler finished off his high school career winning the 2021 2A State Championship. It was the first basketball state championship title in school history. He ended up choosing Florida State where he would make an immediate impact as a freshman (2021-22) averaging 5.9 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1.2 blocks. Butler led the Seminoles in both 3-point field goals made and blocked shots. After his freshman season concluded, Butler decided to forego his remaining college eligibility and enter the draft on June 1, 2022. He went unselected in the 2022 NBA Draft.

All-around outing in return
FWisconsin Herd   G League (Bucks)
February 27, 2026
Butler (illness) generated six points (2-5 FG, 2-5 3Pt), 10 rebounds, four blocks, two steals and one assist over 31 minutes in Thursday's 117-97 G League loss to the Memphis Hustle.
ANALYSIS
Butler failed to impress in terms of scoring but racked up a variety of defensive numbers during his comeback from a short absence. The versatile player has served in both forward and center roles this season, so he's now a strong option to start over either Kobe Stewart or Lacey James.
