Jamal Small Game Report: @ Rauner

Butler was led to victory by Jamal Small, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Small almost dropped a double-double on 18 points and nine steals, good enough to set a new career-high in points in the process. That high mark didn't come from nowhere: he has now grabbed three or more in the last 12 games he's played.

Small and Butler won't have much time to rest: their next match is against Julian at 12:30 p.m. on Saturday. Julian will enter the matchup having just beaten Chicago Washington, so Butler will have to guard against a team looking to keep the ball rolling.
