During a recent interview, Jimmy Butler said he’s been working on his ball handling and believes he could play point guard next season.
Butler added, with more playmaking responsibilities, he can be a triple-double threat in the Bulls’ new offense under coach Fred Hoiberg.

Butler continues to work on his own secret weapon.
“First off, I think I am a point guard,” Butler said without joking. “So I’ve done a heck of a lot of ball screen work, ball handling, getting into the paint and still handling, floaters, all that stuff point guards do. If I get a chance, high pick and roll more. I want some triple doubles. I’ve got to get my handle right so I can pass and get it to guys where they can make shots. I told Fred. You ask what position I play, I say point guard.”
