Hupu, October 19th: Former NBA player Gilbert Arenas said on a show that Jimmy Butler is not a real second scoring point, and said that the Warriors need Buddy Hield and Jonathan Kuminga to step up and become the real second choice.

Arenas said: "Steph’s style of play can keep the team competitive, but he needs another person to help him share the load. Jimmy Butler plays team basketball; he is a team player. This team currently does not have a clear second scoring point Kuminga and Hield haven't stepped up and said, 'I'm going to take those 18 shots and be the second scorer.' They don't have that role yet. "

Butler averaged 17.5 points, 5.4 rebounds and 5.4 assists per game.
