Jimmy Butler is down on the court in serious pain.
The Miami Heat star suffered a gruesome looking ankle injury during Game 1 of the second round series against the New York Knicks on Sunday afternoon.
Butler, obviously, would be a truly massive loss for the Heat. He led Miami to a first round upset over the No. 1-seeded Bucks in the first round.
If Butler is unable to go, it would likely be an insurmountable loss for the Heat.

Head coach Erik Spoelstra ha da one-word reaction to Butler’s injury on Sunday.
“F–k,” he could be seen saying from the bench.
Ankle injuries can often be even bigger problems the day or two after the injury is suffered. While he might be able to play the rest of the game on Sunday, his status for Game 2 could be in doubt.
Game 1 of the playoff series is airing on ABC.
