Shea-USA TODAY Sports</cite>Jimmy Butler does not need surgery on his sprained elbow, a source confirmed to ESPNChicago.com.
Jimmy Butler is expected to miss three to six weeks with a sprained left elbow, the latest setback for the injury-plaguedChicago Bulls.
However, Butler will not need surgery to repair the injury, a league source confirmed to ESPNChicago.com.
Butler was diagnosed with a Grade 2/3 ulnar ligament sprain and a small bone impaction injury after undergoing an MRI on Monday, one day after he was injured in a loss to the Los Angeles Clippers.
He suffered the injury when he collided with Clippers center DeAndre Jordanthree minutes into the second half Sunday and did not return.
The hope within Butler's camp is that rest and treatment will allow him to come back before the regular seasons ends and get a few games under his belt alongside Derrick Rose, who is expected to be out four to six weeks after having knee surgery Friday.
Butler, who became an All-Star for the first time this season, has been the Bulls' best two-way player this season, averaging 20.2 points, 5.9 rebounds and 3.3 assists in 55 games.

#22Way too early to declare, and what does that even mean? The Bulls are going to extend Butler, without a doubt. Rose has what he has left on his contract. Beyond that, yeah, they might dump him, but again too early to say. It's a player-by-player thing.Comment -

#24Which dude are we talking about? This thread is about Butler, I think. Not defensive, just seemed like people are serious about the 'playing hurt' thing, which usually involves comparing apples to oranges.Comment -
