Jimmy Butler is likely to return to the Chicago Bulls' lineup on Monday against the Charlotte Hornets.

Butler has missed the past 11 games due to a left elbow injury. The Bulls were 5-6 during the stretch.

"He feels good," Tom Thibodeau said. "We’ll see when he warms up tonight. But it looks like it could be a go."

Thibodeau said Butler, who leads the NBA in minutes per game, wouldn't be restricted upon his return. Tony Snell would move into a reserve role.
