Rasual Butler was a key player last season for the Hornets after injuries struck them big-time. But, this season his shooting stroke has gone cold (37.6% from the floor) and he will likely lose playing time soon if he doesn’t straighten things out soon. In his first 18 games of the season Butler has averaged 4.7 points, 1.5 rebounds and 0.7 assists per game. The Hornets need Butler to find his stroke because he is the best long range shooter the Hornets have on the bench.
